Health and safety expert Andrew Wilkinson is launching what are billed as purposeful courses to enhance health and safety training for local and regional businesses who take the safety and wellbeing of their staff seriously.
Andrew Wilkinson is a senior safety consultant and co-director of Swindon-based health and safety consultancy business Secure Safety Solutions.
Previously a health and safety specialist at Heathrow Airport, Andrew is a Certified Health and Safety Consultant, holds CertIOSH and TMIFPO status and has the ABBE Level 4 Diploma in Fire Risk Assessment.
Andrew uses his expertise to advise businesses on their health and safety standards, and keeping companies compliant across the UK.
“When someone hears about attending a health and safety course, they often respond with a groan,” said Andrew.
“I understand the assumption, but done right, health and safety courses can change the game for businesses.”
Recently, Andrew finished delivering Secure Safety Solution’s three-day IOSH Managing Safely course for a local Swindon company.
The course covers:
- Managers' health and safety responsibilities
- Identifying and assessing workplace risks
- Controlling risks and choosing suitable control measures
- Understanding common workplace hazards
- Investigating incidents and learning from what has gone wrong
- Measuring and improving health and safety performance
Andrew said: “My IOSH Managing Safely courses are designed for managers and supervisors who require the knowledge and confidence to manage health and safety as part of their day-to-day roles.
"The course is practical led and is about bringing my real-life consultancy experience into the IOSH course training.
"I always aim to make my courses as engaging as possible, so attendees can easily implement this training into their working lives.
“Whether you’re in the construction, manufacturing, logistics or corporate industry, workplace health and safety affects us all and our course applies to any field.”
Attendees take part in a three-day, IOSH accredited, comprehensive course, whose successful participants receive their IOSH Managing Safely certificate.
“The feedback we receive from the courses is always really positive,” said Kim Wilkinson, co-director and operations manager of Secure Safety Solutions.
“Attendees speak about how Andrew expertly combines his knowledge and real-life experience of working as a health and safety consultant into the course.
“He brings what can be a difficult topic to life and helps people relate what they're learning to what actually happens when they go back to work.”
Secure Safety Solutions will be running 2027 courses on 15-17 March and 6-8- September,
Secure Safety Solutions also offers adapted courses for companies looking to train larger teams.
They are a trusted business in the health and safety consultancy field, who provide tailored solutions to support businesses meet regulatory standard and nurture a positive well-being culture within organisations.
