Course Description
This course aims to provide candidates with an understanding of how exposure to hazardous substances arises and where they may occur, in the workplace and introduce methods and technologies which are available to control exposures and help reduce risks to health.
On completing this course successfully, participants will be able to:-
•
Describe how airborne contaminants are generated by industrial processes, how this would impact on the control strategy, and how control solutions can be optimised
•
Recognise the range of approaches to risk reduction embodied in the hierarchy of control and select appropriate strategies for implementation
•
Describe the meaning of “adequate control” in relation to personal exposures
•
Discuss the importance of design considerations in terms of the workplace, process, and plant, as a means of reducing occupational exposures
Describe the principal elements of a local exhaust ventilation system, give examples of typical installations, and know how to conduct the necessary measurements to assess whether a local exhaust ventilation system is effective and operating to the design specification
•
Recognise the limitations of local exhaust hoods and enclosures and the means to optimise their effectiveness
•
Describe how personal protective equipment programmes may be used in an effective manner
•
Recognise the impact that control measures may have on other workplace hazards and understand the need to take a holistic approach to the design of control solutions
This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of BOHS-M505: Control of Hazardous Substances. It covers the range of properties of airborne contaminants and the potential hazards they may present; develop an understanding of the approach to controlling exposure problems and how to select appropriate control strategies; the workplace control principles covering hierarchy of control, achieving effective control and the role of assessment (by all routes); the practical applications of the hierarchy of control and identifying effective control strategies, adopting the principles of reasonable practicability.
During this interactive course, participants will learn the design of equipment and workplace and apply prevention, elimination and substitution; the general ventilation systems and local exhaust ventilation (LEV) and apply proper measurement and testing of LEV systems; the personal protective equipment, respiratory protective equipment, chemical protective clothing (CPC), gloves and dermal care; and the various administrative elements.
The course will require at least 45 hours of study time, of which at least 37 hours will be taught (teaching and practical asssessments) and 8 hours will be independent (in the candidates’ own time).
Candidates for this course are expected to be aware of the general contents of the Control of Substances to Health (COSHH) regulations, HSE Guidance Note HSG193 COSHH Essentials Easy Steps to Control Chemicals, HSE Guidance Note HSG258 controlling Airborne Contaminants at Work and HSE Guidance Note HSG53 Respiratory Protection at Work.
