Who is this course suitable for ?
The course is designed for those who work with equines or work in an equine environment.
Equines are large animals and it is important for those that work with them to understand the behaviour of equines, the risks associated in working with them and how to avoid the dangers of accident or illness in the equine workplace to themselves and others.
Most people undertaking the course will already have at least some experience with equines but it is easy for anyone to fall into bad habits and forget about the dangers in any such workplace.
After taking the course students will understand the risks involved, why work practice procedures are put in place and how to protect themselves and others.
Health & Safety in the workplace is the responsibility of both the employer and the employee.
