Health and Safety Training for Homeworkers, Page 212 Reviews

Gave enough information to get a good grounding in what is required for Health and Safety at home.

A perfect training tool for home workers. Easy to understand and available in many languages. I am hard of hearing and I found the transcript provided very useful to accompany the dialogue

The training served as a refresher and also a learner opportunity. It included quite useful and very relevant information. I had no prior knowledge of some of the topics covered. I would definitely recommend it.

The training was valuable and I learnt a few new things - however much of it is covered in other mandatory training though so I felt it was much longer than it needed to be. In particular the section on fire and monitor positioning is training I undertook vey recently so just repeated what I already knew. I personally would rather take a more detailed test before I started and just watch the sections were my knowledge was lacking and be re-tested at the end.

No summary provided

It is a good course, but in this present unavoidable home working situation not sure how relevant. Such as use of appropriate chair, using an additional computer keyboard and making sure you have the correct height for the lap top. Also being able to allocate a specific working environment/space when everyone is in isolation with their family members and limited space.

Too long and and the way some of your questions are worded could be more than one answer depending on the situation.

As I have children working from home I found the course allowed me to understand what they needed to know.

I found this course to be incredibly sexist and seemed to portray that only women with children worked from home and that they did this because they could not find appropriate child care. The 'unsuitable footwear' image was also inappropriate and again gave the impression that women were stupid enough to not know how to dress themselves appropriately. Rather than patronising women this course could have shown how women successfully juggle all their roles whilst safely managing to work and 'keep on top of their housework'.

Some simple messages and reminders that provoke thinking about health and safety at home and when working
