Electricity & Gas Awareness

Duration - Half Day

Overview

No employer would wish to expose employees to electric/gas hazards as it can be, and often is, fatal. Unfortunately, practically all workplaces make use of electricity and gas for some purpose, meaning that the risk of death or injury is ever-present.

Reducing this risk is a challenge because accidents involving electricity and gas often result from a casual attitude brought about by familiarity with them as a power source, or simply a failure to appreciate the dangers of these hidden killers.

• Understand the serious effects of electricity and gas on the body
