What Are the Most Popular H&S e-Learning Courses for Offices?

The most popular H&S e-learning courses for offices are, by default, the ones most relevant for the environment and include:

• Display Screen Equipment (DSE) Assessment
• Fire Awareness Training Courses
• Slips, Trips, and Falls Training
• Manual Handling
• Workplace Mental Health & Stress Awareness

Both DSE and manual handling training focus on ergonomics and the best way for staff to avoid injuries whilst carrying out their normal office duties.

Fire awareness training is not just about knowing what to do if a fire breaks out; it also covers how to avoid potential fire hazards, such as damaged plugs and sockets. Educating about clear fire escape routes, the purpose of fire doors in good working order, and the avoidance of storing flammable materials in high-risk areas, such as piles of old cardboard boxes next to a smoking shelter.

Slips, trips, and falls training mainly concentrates on the work environment and how clear, well-lit, and suitable floor coverings in good condition are one step in avoiding accidents. The training doesn’t just teach what makes a safe working environment; it also teaches how to recognise and report hazards that could cause others to be injured.

Workplace Mental Health & Stress Awareness focuses on promoting a workplace culture where mental health is openly discussed, and candidates learn to recognise the signs of stress and gain insight into the mental health support resources available to them.
