Silica Dust Awareness e-learning course
Are your site teams protected against one of the most common hidden hazards in the industry?
In the construction and manufacturing sectors, not all dangers are immediately visible. Respirable Crystalline Silica (RCS) dust is a microscopic, highly hazardous substance generated by routine site activities. Without proper awareness and control measures, prolonged exposure can lead to irreversible and life-altering respiratory conditions.
To help organisations protect their workforce and maintain strict regulatory compliance, we are thrilled to announce that our brand-new Silica Dust Awareness e-learning course is now LIVE in our Health and Safety suite.
A Targeted Solution for Industry Professionals
Designed specifically for workers, supervisors, and health and safety professionals across construction and manufacturing, this concise 45-minute module delivers essential, actionable knowledge on the dangers of RCS dust. It bridges the gap between regulatory requirements and practical, on-the-ground safety.
What the Course Covers
Our comprehensive curriculum breaks down complex health and safety concepts into easily digestible segments. Course highlights include:
- Hazard Identification: Learn to accurately identify high-risk materials and the daily workplace activities that actively generate and release silica dust into the air.
- Real-World Impact: Gain a deep understanding of the serious diseases caused by RCS inhalation. This section is backed by impactful, real-life case studies that demonstrate the profound personal and professional impact on individuals.
- Regulatory Compliance: Clearly break down both employer and employee legal responsibilities under the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) regulations, ensuring your site remains legally compliant.
- Practical Control Measures: Move beyond theory by applying highly effective control measures. The module guides users through the hierarchy of controls—from source extraction and engineering controls to health surveillance and the correct selection and use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and Respiratory Protective Equipment (RPE).
