Risk assessment in focus

Health and safety featured heavily in the curriculum of the College during the Week with a packed timetable covering a range of subjects from Monday to Friday.

To focus on risk assessment, each student observed a lesson and then identified the risks involved and the steps taken to alleviate the risk. The students attended a local health and safety exhibition that featured a ‘hazard alley’. Here the students spotted a range of hazards in a yard, an office environment and a kitchen. Health and safety was also the theme for the school assembly one morning during the Week.

"FIEC, together with its Social Partner EFBWW, has been promoting health and safety initiatives for many years. We are convinced that one of the most promising ways towards achieving a real improvement is through the implementation of appropriate health and safety training for youngsters entering our sector. This will increase the overall awareness of risks and the possibilities of avoiding them. Consequently, FIEC wholeheartedly supports the aims of the 2006 OSHA campaign."
