Free Occupational Health Training

The Department for Work and Pensions is offering free Occupational Health training to line managers in small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) between January and March this year. They hope that this will help organisations to manage sickness absence well and retain skilled staff who are off work sick or need workplace adjustments. 

Candidates can take the training online or in person. It usually takes 5-6 hours to complete and can lead to you obtaining a Institution for Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH) Certificate. 

Find out more and sign up via the campaign website.

There are 5000 places available and they will be assigned on a first-come first-served basis.
