Health and Safety Training for Managers Managing Safety the Irish Way, Certified Across Ireland

Accidents rarely begin where they happen: they begin in a decision made weeks earlier, the machine bought without checking the guarding, the risk assessment left unreviewed, the induction squeezed out of a busy week, until an injury, an inspector or an insurance claim asks what the manager knew. We are an official accredited provider, and the Health and Safety Training for Managers is the health and safety course for managers Irish workplaces put their leadership through, built on the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 and the General Application Regulations 2007. Nineteen modules teach you the duties of employers, managers and employees, the five step risk assessment and the safety statement, then walk you hazard by hazard through slips, trips and falls, working at height, DSE, welfare, fire safety, hazardous substances, work equipment, machinery, noise, vibration, workplace transport, electricity, manual handling, PPE, first aid, wellbeing and safety culture, all through real workplaces, clear photographs and video lessons written by qualified instructors. The full health and safety management training, the exam and unlimited retakes live inside one honest price, and your health and safety for managers certificate is ready in about 8-9 hours.

Official Course Overview

Health and Safety Training for Managers, Built on the Duties Irish Law Gives You

A manager's signature sits on the safety statement, the training records and the risk assessments, and when the Health and Safety Authority walks in, that signature is where the questions begin. The Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 does not let safety live in a folder: it expects the people who direct the work to understand the hazards, assess them and control them, every ordinary week of the year. This Health and Safety Training for Managers is written line by line against that law, so the certificate you download at the end stands up in a real inspection instead of just looking good in a folder.

This course hands you that understanding across nineteen practical modules. It opens with the law itself, the 2005 Act and the General Application Regulations 2007 and what each one asks of employers, managers and employees. It then teaches the five step risk assessment and the safety statement, the two documents every Irish workplace stands on. From there it works hazard by hazard through a manager's real week: slips, trips and falls, working at height, display screen equipment, welfare facilities, fire safety, hazardous substances, work equipment, machinery, noise, vibration, workplace transport, electricity, manual handling, PPE, first aid, wellbeing and safety culture. Real workplaces, clear photographs and video lessons carry every module.

Built on
  • Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005
  • General Application Regulations 2007
  • Safety statement and risk assessment duties

The three rules that shape your training

  1. Sections 8 and 10

    The employer duties managers deliver

    The Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 obliges every employer to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the safety, health and welfare of employees, and to provide the information, instruction, training and supervision people need to work safely. Those duties reach the workplace through its managers, one decision at a time, and this course prepares managers to carry them.

  2. Sections 19 and 20

    Risk assessment and the safety statement

    Every employer must identify hazards, assess the risks and write the findings into a safety statement that names the controls and the people responsible for them. The course teaches the five step risk assessment and the safety statement exactly as the Health and Safety Authority expects to find them, because these two documents are where every inspection starts.

  3. S.I. No. 299 of 2007

    The hazard by hazard rulebook

    The Safety, Health and Welfare at Work (General Application) Regulations 2007 write the specific rules for the hazards managers handle every week: display screen equipment, work equipment, noise, vibration, manual handling, PPE, electricity, first aid and workplace welfare. The course walks through each set of rules from the manager's side of the desk.

Course Curriculum

What the Health and Safety Training for Managers covers, module by module

Nineteen focused modules build the complete manager, in order: first why managing safety matters and the duties the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 places on employers, managers and employees, then the five step risk assessment and the safety statement, and from there every major hazard a manager owns in a real week: slips, trips and falls, working at height, display screen equipment, welfare facilities, fire safety, hazardous substances, work equipment, machinery, noise, vibration, workplace transport, electricity, manual handling, PPE, first aid, wellbeing and safety culture. Every lesson is written in plain, friendly language, mapped to the 2005 Act and the General Application Regulations 2007, and every one of them moves you closer to your health and safety for managers certificate.

  1. Introducing Health and Safety

    Foundations

    Where a manager stands in Irish law, explained without the legalese: the human and business cost of getting safety wrong, the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 and the separate duties it hands to employers, managers and employees, what "so far as is reasonably practicable" actually asks of you, and the role and enforcement powers of the Health and Safety Authority. By the end of this module the legal framework reads like a job description instead of a statute.

  2. Risk Assessment

    The Method

    The method every later module leans on: what a risk assessment really is, who carries the responsibility for making it happen, and the five steps in their working order, identify the hazards, decide who might be harmed and how, evaluate the risks against the hierarchy of control, record the findings, review and update. A video lesson walks through the hierarchy of control, and the module ties it all to the safety statement duties in sections 19 and 20 of the 2005 Act.

  3. Display Screen Equipment

    Ergonomics

    Every desk, laptop and workstation in the business is a DSE duty someone owns, and that someone is usually the manager. You learn who qualifies as a DSE user, how a workstation assessment is carried out, and the setup that keeps people comfortable and legal: eyes level with the top of the monitor, chair, keyboard and lighting all in their right place. Includes a video lesson on positioning display screen equipment and the eyesight test entitlements from the General Application Regulations 2007.

  4. Welfare and Workplace Facilities

    The Workplace

    The baseline every workplace owes its people: sanitary and washing facilities, drinking water, rest areas, ventilation, temperature, lighting and the housekeeping standards that hold it all together. The module shows how welfare failures quietly turn into morale, retention and enforcement problems, and hands you the simple recurring checks that keep every facility compliant without drama.

  5. Fire Safety

    Fire

    Fire safety as a management system rather than a poster on the wall: the fire triangle, the common causes of workplace fires, and the hierarchy of fire protection, avoid the risk first, then detect, then escape, then fight. You learn what fire doors and their self closing features are really for, extinguisher types and their uses, evacuation planning and fire drills, with two video lessons on fire signs and the requirements they must meet.

  6. Slips, Trips and Falls

    Prevention

    The single most common cause of workplace injury in Ireland, and the hazard a manager can improve fastest. You learn the usual suspects, wet floors, trailing cables, poor lighting, unsuitable footwear, the controls that beat them, from spill procedures and flooring choices to walkway design, and how to fold slip and trip checks into ordinary supervision so prevention becomes routine rather than a campaign.

  7. Working at Height

    Heights

    Falls from height stay near the top of every fatality table, so the module starts with the hierarchy that saves lives: avoid work at height, prevent falls, minimise the consequences. Then the practical rules managers enforce daily: ladders and stepladders used at the correct angle and secured, the three points of contact rule, and the honest question of when a ladder is the wrong tool entirely and a scaffold, tower or MEWP has to take its place.

  8. Hazardous Substances

    Chemicals

    The harm you cannot see coming: chemicals, dusts, fumes and biological agents. You learn the routes of entry a substance can take into the body, how to read hazard pictograms and safety data sheets, the duties the Chemical Agents Regulations add on top of the 2005 Act, and the controls a manager must order in sequence, substitution first, then ventilation, safe storage, PPE and health surveillance where the risk demands it.

  9. Work Equipment

    Equipment

    Rules that follow every tool and machine you put in someone's hands: selecting equipment that actually suits the task, the safe working load and why exceeding it is never negotiable, the information, instruction and training users are owed, and the two layer inspection regime, the quick visual pre-use check the user does every time, and the formal periodic inspections a competent person carries out and records.

  10. Machinery Safety

    Machinery

    Where the worst injuries happen and the rules are strictest. You learn to recognise the dangerous parts of machinery, what every guard and protective device must achieve, keeping people away from dangerous parts, how interlocks and emergency stops work, safe isolation and lock out before maintenance ever starts, and the standards a new machine must meet before it earns a place on your floor.

  11. Noise at Work

    Noise

    Decibels made practical: how sound is measured, why a rise of just 3 dB means the noise has doubled, and how sustained exposure turns into tinnitus and noise induced hearing loss that no treatment reverses. You learn the exposure action values of 80 dB(A) and 85 dB(A) from the Control of Noise Regulations, the duties each threshold triggers, hearing protection zones, and the source controls that come before anyone reaches for earmuffs.

  12. Vibration

    Vibration

    The slow injury hiding in vibrating tools and vehicle seats: hand-arm vibration syndrome and whole body vibration, the early symptoms a manager should never wave away, and the exposure action values, including the daily EAV of 2.5 m/s² for hand-arm vibration averaged over 8 hours. You learn to cut exposure through tool selection, maintenance, job rotation and trigger time limits, and to recognise when health surveillance becomes a duty.

  13. Workplace Transport

    Transport

    Vehicles and people in the same space is one of the deadliest combinations in Irish workplaces. You learn to design traffic routes that keep vehicle and pedestrian paths from ever meeting, to remove blind corners with one way systems, mirrors and signage, to manage loading and reversing safely, and to enforce the rule every fleet runs on: drivers and operators check their vehicle visually before every single use.

  14. Electrical Safety

    Electricity

    Electricity gives no warning, so the controls must be in place before the fault is. You learn the main electrical hazards, shock, burns, fire and arcing, the single most valuable habit on any site, checking portable equipment, its lead and its plug for external damage before use, and the manager's layer on top: safe systems of work, RCDs, inspection regimes and the strict rules around working near live parts.

  15. Manual Handling

    Handling

    Roughly a third of Irish workplace injuries begin with a lift, a push or a pull, which makes this module a daily tool. You learn the manual handling hierarchy of control, avoid the task where possible, then reduce the risk, the TILE assessment of task, individual, load and environment, and the techniques that survive contact with real work, supported by video lessons on pushing and pulling operations and correct lifting.

  16. Personal Protective Equipment

    PPE

    The last line of defence, and the duties attached to it: PPE enters the picture only after the higher controls have done their work, and when it does, the employer provides it, pays for it, maintains it and trains people in its use, never the employee. You learn to match the right protection to each hazard from head to foot, and the habits that keep PPE actually worn, properly stored and replaced on time.

  17. First Aid

    Response

    When prevention fails, the first minutes decide the outcome. You learn the employer's duty to assess the first aid needs of the workplace and then meet them: how many occupational first aiders the numbers and the risks demand, what belongs in the first aid box and where it lives, appointed persons and first aid rooms, and the reporting duties when an accident or dangerous occurrence has to reach the Health and Safety Authority.

  18. Wellbeing and Occupational Health

    Wellbeing

    The hazards that never leave a mark: work related stress and what drives it, bullying and harassment, and violence at work, including the rule that every work activity carrying a risk of violence from others needs its own policy. You learn the manager's role in prevention, the early signals worth acting on, and how occupational health support keeps people well and at work instead of absent and unheard.

  19. Safety Culture

    Leadership

    The module that turns eighteen chapters of knowledge into one way of running a workplace: what a positive safety culture looks like in practice, why engagement at every level of the company, from the top down, is what creates it, and how managers set the tone through visible leadership, consultation, near miss reporting and learning from incidents instead of assigning blame. Finish this module and the final exam unlocks: pass it and your certificate downloads straight away.

Learning Outcomes

What you will be able to do after this course

The working knowledge you will carry into your very next walk of the floor, your next purchase order and your next roster decision.

  1. Name the duties the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 and the General Application Regulations 2007 place on you as a manager, and know exactly where your responsibility begins.
  2. Run the five step risk assessment, apply the hierarchy of control and keep the safety statement a living document, exactly as the Health and Safety Authority expects to find it.
  3. Manage the everyday injury drivers with confidence: slips, trips and falls, working at height, manual handling and workplace transport.
  4. Own fire safety end to end, from the hierarchy of fire protection and fire doors to extinguishers, signage, evacuation plans and drills.
  5. Control the technical hazards by their own specific rules: hazardous substances, work equipment, machinery, noise, vibration and electricity.
  6. Meet the PPE and first aid duties in full, from equipment provided at no cost to employees to a first aid needs assessment that stands up to inspection.
  7. Spot and act on stress, bullying and violence at work early, and know when the law requires a dedicated policy on violence.
  8. Lead a positive safety culture through engagement at every level, from the top down, so safe work runs on habit instead of luck.
Compliance mapped

Every outcome maps to the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 and the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work (General Application) Regulations 2007, so the certificate is recognised on both sides of the border.

Questions, Answered Plainly

Health and Safety Training for Managers in Ireland, Answered Plainly

The questions workers and employers send us every week about the Health and Safety Training for Managers, the certificate and what the HSA expects, answered without the sales talk.

What does the Health and Safety Training for Managers actually cover?

A manager's signature sits on the safety statement, the training records and the risk assessments, and when the Health and Safety Authority walks in, that signature is where the questions begin. The Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 does not let safety live in a folder: it expects the people who direct the work to understand the hazards, assess them and control them, every ordinary week of the year. The course takes that risk apart step by step, then shows you the controls that remove it. This course hands you that understanding across nineteen practical modules. It opens with the law itself, the 2005 Act and the General Application Regulations 2007 and what each one asks of employers, managers and employees. It then teaches the five step risk assessment and the safety statement, the two documents every Irish workplace stands on. From there it works hazard by hazard through a manager's real week: slips, trips and falls, working at height, display screen equipment, welfare facilities, fire safety, hazardous substances, work equipment, machinery, noise, vibration, workplace transport, electricity, manual handling, PPE, first aid, wellbeing and safety culture. Real workplaces, clear photographs and video lessons carry every module.

Is Health and Safety Training for Managers a legal requirement in Ireland?

Sections 8 and 10 is the short answer. The Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 obliges every employer to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the safety, health and welfare of employees, and to provide the information, instruction, training and supervision people need to work safely. Those duties reach the workplace through its managers, one decision at a time, and this course prepares managers to carry them. Our course is written directly against that wording, which is why it satisfies the duty rather than merely gesturing at it.

Who needs to take the Health and Safety Training for Managers?

Everyone who carries responsibility for people, premises or work activities: managers and supervisors in every industry, team leaders moving up, business owners and directors who hold the employer duties personally, HR professionals who keep the training records, and anyone preparing for their first management role. The course starts from zero, so no previous health and safety knowledge is expected.

How much does the Health and Safety Training for Managers cost?

The Health and Safety Training for Managers is â‚Ŧ35.00 per person, and that is the full price. Team bookings get a volume discount applied automatically, and any 5 different courses cost just â‚Ŧ100 flat, with one invoice and one account for all your records.

Can I do the Health and Safety Training for Managers online, on my phone?

Yes, the whole course is online and works on any phone, tablet or laptop. There is no classroom day and no fixed start time: register, log in and begin the Health and Safety Training for Managers whenever it suits you, at home or on a break at work. Progress saves automatically as you go.

How long does the Health and Safety Training for Managers take to complete?

About 8-9 hours, and you do not have to do it in one sitting. Progress saves as you go, so you can stop after a lesson and pick it back up on another device. Your certificate is ready to download the moment you pass.

What certificate do I get, and when do I receive it?

You download your Health and Safety Training for Managers certificate as a PDF the moment you pass the exam, day or night. It shows your name, the course, the date and a verification link, so an employer or inspector can confirm it in seconds. A copy stays in your account whenever you need to print it again.

How long is the certificate valid in Ireland?

Renewal is recommended every three years, or sooner if your team, premises, processes or the law changes. We track the date for you and send a reminder before it lapses, so no certificate in your team expires without anyone noticing. The refresher is the same short online course, so staying compliant never costs a working day.

What happens if I fail the exam?

Nothing bad. You can retake the exam as many times as you need at no extra cost, and you can revisit any lesson before trying again. Most learners pass first time, because the questions test exactly what the course just taught.

Is the practical assessment included?

This course is assessed by examination rather than by a practical, because the competence it builds is judgement rather than technique. You get unlimited attempts at the exam, at no extra cost.

Can I book this course for my whole team?

Yes, and the platform is built for it. One company account covers every employee, shows you at a glance who has finished and who has not, stores every certificate in one place and gives you a single invoice for the lot. Group bookings get the volume discount applied automatically in your cart, and any 5 different courses cost just â‚Ŧ100 flat.

Will employers and inspectors accept the certificate?

They do. We are an official accredited provider and the certificate carries a verification link an inspector can check in seconds. It is accepted by employers in Ireland, the UK and across the EU, and behind it stand our accreditations: Irish Legislation Aligned, QQI Assessed, CPD and RoSPA Accredited.

What does the health and safety training for managers course cover?

The full management picture, across nineteen modules: the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 and the responsibilities it assigns to employers, managers and employees; the five step risk assessment, the hierarchy of control and the safety statement; and then the hands on management of every major hazard a workplace can hold, from slips, trips and falls, working at height, display screen equipment and welfare facilities to fire safety, hazardous substances, work equipment and machinery, noise, vibration, workplace transport, electrical safety, manual handling, PPE, first aid, wellbeing and occupational health, and the safety culture that ties it all together.

Is health and safety training for managers required by law in Ireland?

Yes, in practice. The Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 obliges every employer to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the safety, health and welfare of employees, and to provide the information, instruction, training and supervision that keeps people safe. Managers are the ones who deliver those duties on the ground, which means they need the working knowledge to assess risks, maintain the safety statement and control everyday hazards. This course provides that knowledge and the verifiable certificate that proves it, aligned with HSA guidance.

What legal duties does a manager actually have under the 2005 Act?

The course turns the legal text into a manager's checklist: provide safe systems of work, safe equipment and a safe workplace; identify hazards, assess the risks and record everything in the safety statement; give employees information, instruction, training and supervision; supply PPE at no cost; assess first aid needs and appoint the right people; consult employees on safety decisions; and report serious incidents to the Health and Safety Authority. Each module shows how these duties surface in ordinary decisions, from approving a new machine to planning a busy week.

How many questions does the exam have and what do I need to pass?

Twenty multiple choice questions, three options each, drawn from all nineteen modules. The pass mark is 75 percent, so 15 correct answers out of 20 earn the certificate. The test has no time limit, and if an attempt falls short you can reread any module and retake the exam free, as many times as it takes. The certificate generates the instant you pass.

How fast do I get the health and safety training for managers certificate?

The second the pass screen appears. The certificate is generated automatically, sent to your email and filed on the Certificates page of your account, complete with a unique code any employer or inspector can verify online. The course itself runs about 8-9 hours, which most managers split across a few sittings, and the certificate holds for 3 years.

Who should take the health and safety course for managers?

Anyone the organisation looks to when something needs deciding: managers and supervisors across construction, manufacturing, logistics, retail, hospitality, healthcare and offices, team leaders taking their first step up, owners and directors who carry the employer duties in their own name, and HR professionals responsible for training records. Nothing needs to be known in advance; the nineteen modules build from the ground up and cover every hazard a manager is likely to meet.

Can I do the course from Dublin, Cork, Galway, Limerick or anywhere else in Ireland?

Yes. The whole programme is delivered 100 percent online, so a production manager in Sligo receives the identical accredited training and certificate as a facilities director in Dublin. Start on the office laptop, continue on your phone between meetings and finish at the kitchen table; progress syncs across devices by itself, and the certificate is recognised by employers throughout Ireland, the UK and the EU.

How do I train several managers at once and what discounts apply?

Pricing sorts itself at checkout with no voucher codes: 15 percent off any 3 different courses, 10 percent off 10 or more courses, 20 percent off 50 or more, and any 5 different courses for a flat 100 euro.
