Why Train in house?
Many businesses are choosing to provide their first aid and manual handling training in house for logistical and financial reasons and because the want to ensure consistency and quality of training.
High staff turnover and re-training can make ensuring that you comply with regulations using an outside training company and expensive option.
Shift work can make organising courses very difficult and time consuming especially when you need to arrange for a minimum amount of staff to attend to achieve discounts on your courses.
Not many businesses can honestly say that they haven't paid for courses that their staff were unable to attend, if you bring your training in-house you won't be throwing good money down the drain.
The Problem - Many companies are put off training in house for the following reasons:-
-
They do not have any staff who have the first aid experience and knowlege of the regulations to prepare the training materials and courses for First Aid and Manual Handling. - They are unsure that the courses they will provide give them the quality of training they require to cover all of their responsibilites under the Health and Safety Legislation.
- They need to run Health and Safety Approved courses and becoming an HSE approved centre can costs thousands of pounds and takes months of hard work to achieve with no guarantee of success.
- These are real issues, many First Aid Instructor Courses and Manual Handling Courses do require the preperation of your own First Aid Training materials and it will take a considerable amount of time and money to gain approval as an HSE Approved Training Provider.
- Many companies do not meet the minimum number of courses needed to meet HSE Requirements and maintain HSE Approval.
