Give your learners awareness of risk assessment and management issues.

Quality risk assessment is an essential component for any business looking to operate effectively and safely.

The Highfield Level 2 Award in Risk Assessment (RQF) has been created to provide learners with an awareness of the benefits of risk assessment in any environment. It will prepare learners to move onto further/higher level training while informing them of the responsibilities of employers, the main causes and costs of work-related fatalities, injuries, and health, as well as the role of risk assessment in the prevention of accidents and ill-health, the requirements of a risk assessment, and methods of evaluating risks.

It aims to ensure learners understand that moving and handling must be carried out the right way, and that they recognise its importance in contributing to a safe working environment.

Topics covered:

  • Understanding why risk assessments are necessary for maintaining and improving standards of health and safety at work
  • Understanding the principles of risk assessment
