QQI Level 5 Safety & Health at Work involves more than just following rules; it is about fostering a culture where every individual is aware of the risks and actively participates in maintaining a safe environment. The QQI Level 5 course in this area provides learners with a comprehensive understanding of workplace safety legislation, risk assessment, and the implementation of safety measures. Learners are introduced to the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005, which is the legislative backbone for workplace safety in Ireland. This law outlines the responsibilities of employers and employees, emphasizing the importance of preventing workplace accidents and illnesses.
