Wilkins Health & Safety Services

Health And Safety Training

Under the Health & Safety at Work Etc. Act 1974 and all relevant associated legislation, companies have a duty to train all their employees in health and safety matters.

Wilkins Health & Safety Services are professional health & safety trainers.

As part of our services we provide a full range of Health & Safety courses in excellent training suites in a high class hotel in WELLINGTON, Somerset which provide the latest in training facilities including multimedia projectors and large screen videos. It also provides delegates with a relaxed environment in which to learn, excellent food and ample car parking.

Alternatively we can run most courses at your premises or another venue in your area, to suit your requirements.

How do we teach?

Our training style is informal and interactive, with use of syndicate work, case studies, discussion sessions and role-play. Videos are often used to enhance points being raised. We believe that delegates gain the most from a course when they are relaxed, and our trainers and staff endeavour to ensure that this is made possible.
