Industrial Mastery Pathway
Dust & Fumes Advanced: Construction
Operational Overview
You already know dust is dangerous. This course goes further. It looks at how exposure actually happens on the cutting, grinding and joinery tasks you carry out every day, and what genuinely stops it.
You will work through real COSHH workplace exposure limits, the full hierarchy of controls, and how to choose and fit RPE properly. You will also look at where your legal duties sit, and where your employer's duties begin.
This is not a repeat of your induction. Treat it as the next step in becoming the person on site who understands the risk properly, not just the rule.
