Slips, Trips & Falls

What is this course?

An awareness-level course covering slips, trips, and falls on the same level — the single most common cause of workplace injury in the UK. This course deliberately covers same-level incidents only; falls from height are covered separately in AJ's Working at Height course, so there's no overlap between the two.
