Working Safely, the online edition of the universally acclaimed Institute of Safety and Health (IOSH) health and safety course, has been designed to train workers to ensure that their actions contribute to health and safety in the workplace, and that their individual responsibilities are clearly understood.
The course enables employees to understand their health and safety responsibilities; recognize workplace hazards and risks; implement safety precautions and add value to your organization’s health and safety performance.
This CD-ROM and online version of the market leading paper-based Working Safely title, offers a number of additional benefits to the traditional format, including the ability to learn at one’s own pace, scheduling the training to ensure work activities are not disrupted, portability of learning and cost-effectiveness.
Working safety follows the established IOSH syllabus and is structured as four learning modules, each module containing a series of smaller ‘learning units’.

The course is in six parts, consisting of five modules and a final assessment.
- Module 1 Working Safely. An introduction to the course.
