Why do you need this kind of training? Recent changes in the law now make it illegal not to provide certain members of the work force with this kind of training.

Why choose us? By training with us you can be sure that you are receiving legally accurate and up to date training consistent with what the law requires and provides for.

Our training has undergone (and continues to do so) regular Health and Safety Risk Assessments in line with the requirements of the Health and safety at Work Act 1974 and the associated Regulations (Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 and the Manual Handling Regulations 1992).

It complies with the Positive Obligation to Preserve Life as required by Article 2(1) of the Human Rights Act 1998, as well as compliance with Articles 3, 5 and 8 of the same Act. We conform with all of the relevant Children’s legislation including the Children Act 1989, the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, the Education and Inspections Act 2006 (and various other NEW Educational Legislative requirements),

In addition our training follows the NICE Guidelines, The Mental Health Capacity Act, the Mental Health Act Code of Practice, The Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards, National Minimum Standards for Care Homes Guidance and the NEW Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Act 2007 and the NEW Health and Safety Offences Act 2008.

As well as being qualified professional coaches, we use cutting-edge training skills that enable you to learn in a much quicker, more efficient and faster way. We also use a lot of other advanced training skills to help you such as Purpose Tremor Technique Instruction, the Pareto Principle and many more.

The benefits to you:

• We “Keep it simple” – simple to learn and easy to remember when you need it.

We have continually refined our systems of teaching and training to ensure that what we teach is simple to learn, based on up-to-date Coaching Principles and Current Research in this field, and therefore, is easier to recall and remember – a vitally important principle if such skills are to be used in situations of high emotional arousal or threat.

• Everything we teach is based on a thorough risk assessment so if you follow what we teach and how we teach it – you will never have a claim against you succeed! If you consider the new changes to the law you will be aware of how much you can be sued for if someone is injured as a result of your training because they have failed to notice the risk and take suitable and sufficient control measures.

In addition, the New Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Act now makes Imprisonment more likely where a death occurs that could have been prevented. Also, the fines for serious injuries at work have now also increased.

“Recent tragic events at a Swansea shopping centre brought to light a dangerous practice that may lead to one Security Company facing a Corporate Manslaughter charge. The Shopping Centre management may also face charges under the same legislation and also charges under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974.

A Security guard gave chase to a shoplifter, caught him and restrained him in what turned out to be a fatal unauthorised hold.               £35 theft  =  one life.

During the case it was found that the security staff at the shopping centre had never received any training in Physical Intervention or Conflict Management. Two core subjects for a security officer. Also the shopping Centre management had failed to ensure that the contracted staff was correctly trained. (Failed in the supervisory role.) Which may result in a heavy fine and or imprisonment.”

Fines ranging in the region of £500.000 and or imprisonment 5 years.

We can help prevent this from happening to you…….
