Slips, Trips and Falls Awareness Training Online - RoSPA & CPD Certified

Slips, trips and falls awareness training is designed to help employees understand why these incidents happen, recognise the common causes, and know what practical steps to take to prevent them. It does not train workers to carry out detailed risk assessments or safety audits — it is awareness-level training aimed at reducing incidents through better understanding, good housekeeping, and safe working habits.

Yes. Under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 and the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999, employers have a legal duty to provide adequate information, instruction, and training to employees on workplace hazards. Since slips, trips and falls are the single most common cause of non-fatal workplace injuries in the UK, providing awareness training on this topic is a reasonable and expected part of meeting that duty. The HSE actively promotes slip and trip prevention as a priority area for workplace safety.

Yes. The course covers the key subject areas relevant to slip, trip and fall prevention, including common causes, risk factors, legal responsibilities, risk assessment, control measures, and good housekeeping. It is accredited by RoSPA and CPD, providing employers with recognised, documented evidence that training has been delivered. For most workplaces, this level of awareness training is appropriate and sufficient for general staff.

This means the content has been independently reviewed and meets recognised standards for structured professional development. The dual accreditation provides strong, credible evidence of training for employers, auditors, and insurers.

This course is suitable for employees in any workplace where there is a risk of slips, trips or falls — which, in practice, means virtually every workplace. It is particularly relevant for staff in offices, retail, hospitality, catering, warehousing, logistics, healthcare, education, construction, and public sector environments.

The certificate itself does not have a fixed expiry date. However, it is good practice to refresh awareness training periodically — typically every one to two years — to ensure knowledge remains current and to demonstrate ongoing compliance. Many employers and insurers expect to see recent training records. At the cost of a single course, refresher training is a straightforward and affordable way to stay up to date.
