Short courses for reps on MSD's

By Tony Larkin

As part of European Health and Safety Week (22nd - 24th October) TUC Education is supporting and working with the European Agency for Safety & Health at Work to promote awareness of Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSD’s).

They have jointly have developed a short course which will run in 4 locations around the country -

  • London 22/23 October
  • Manchester 22/23 October
  • Glasgow 24/25 October
  • Bridgend 24/25 October
The course will equip Health & Safety Reps with the skills to address work related issues that pose a potential risk of causing MSD's to workers. HSE trainers will attend the course to introduce new tools (materials for the week are being finalised by the HSE and will be published next month). For more information on this course go to http://www.unionlearn.org.uk/education/learn-1663-f0.cfm
