Additional information
This is the 1st of a series of papers funded by the new Institution of Occupational Safety & Health (IOSH) R&D Fund (£87,000). This paper identifies, for the first time, a relationship between length of training and safety performance, thereby demonstrating the importance of formal safety training (CITB-Construction Skills 5-day course) compared to superficial training sessions. Identifying the importance of this resulted in HSE referencing it in Approved Guidance (L144). Note: annual numbers trained on this course are around 100,000+. The findings were used by the insurance company Norwich Union Risk Services (now AVIVA) in a printed media advertising campaign.
