Why this course?

Accident prevention in construction health and safety is crucial due to the high risk nature of the industry. According to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), the construction sector has one of the highest rates of workplace accidents and fatalities in the UK. In fact, in 2019/20, there were 40 fatal injuries in construction, accounting for 25% of all workplace fatalities. With the construction industry projected to grow by 7% over the next decade according to the Office for National Statistics, the demand for qualified health and safety professionals is on the rise. Employers are increasingly seeking individuals with a construction health and safety diploma to ensure compliance with regulations and to prevent accidents on site. By investing in accident prevention training, companies can reduce the financial burden of workplace accidents. The HSE estimates that workplace injuries and ill health cost the UK economy £16.2 billion in 2019/20. Therefore, a construction health and safety diploma is not only necessary for the well-being of workers, but also for the financial stability of businesses in the industry.
