W505 Control of Hazardous Substances

Duration: 5 days

The Control of Hazardous Substances short course describes the ways in which exposure to hazardous substances arises in the workplace and introduces the methodologies and technologies available to control exposures and thereby reduce risks to health.

On successful completion of this course you should be able to:

  • Describe how airborne contaminants are generated by industrial processes, how this impacts on the control strategy, and how control solutions can thereby be optimised
  • Recognise the range of approaches to risk reduction embodied in the hierarchy of control and select appropriate strategies for implementation.
