STAY SAFE AT WORK

The Health and Safety Authority has introduced a new 45-hour programme, “Student Safety in the Workplace”. It includes an e-learning module to inform students about basic health and safety training, teacher and student workbooks, and a DVD. The programme was devised to tackle the relatively high injury rate for 15-19 year olds in the workplace. The pack is free; interested teachers can call 01-6147016 or e-mail jeanette_lowe@has.ie
