This course is aimed at those in the construction industry that are responsible for using power tools. This could include site supervisors or managers.
This short course provides you with an introduction to Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome, otherwise known as HAVS.
The course starts by establishing exactly what Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome is, before providing a detailed description of the symptoms and consequences of the disorder.
It then provides an overview of the equipment and work-related situations most likely to pose a risk of HAVS, and the exposure values that must be complied with by law.
Following this, the course covers the practical steps you can take to reduce the risk of HAVS, and looks at the law with regards to HAVS, including the responsibilities that both employees and employers must comply with in order to reduce the risk.
“I attended a ‘First Aid at Work’ course with Louise from DG Training.
The course was well run, good demonstrations and plenty of interaction between participants. There was a good mix of theory and practical work and everyone was encouraged by Louise. Whilst the course has a serious content, Louise ensured that it was delivered in a light-hearted way and made it easy for everyone to learn.
