EUSR SHEA Drains & Sewers Training Course

EUSR SHEA Drains and Sewers training covers the same content as the SHEA Core Course, plus two extra modules focused specifically on drains and sewers:

Module 1 - Understanding our workplace responsibilities: the SHEA Drains and Sewers course begins by looking at workplace safety legislation and the responsibility everyone has to keep themselves, their colleagues, and their work environment safe

Module 2 - Understanding the effects of our work on the environment: this module is designed to enhance your understanding of environmental awareness and sustainability

Module 3 - Identifying and controlling risks: next, you’ll learn how to identify and mitigate common risks in the workplace, to keep colleagues and the general public safe

Module 4 - Common hazards in the workplace: this part of the course focuses on physical hazards, and the control measures that can mitigate these

Module 5 - Occupational health hazards: you’ll then find out how to spot and prevent possible occupational health hazards, enhancing your safety knowledge further

Module 6 - Responding to emergencies: this module looks at the procedures to follow and actions required in the event of an emergency

Module 13 - Drains and sewers: the SHEA Drains and Sewers Course then spends time looking at hazards specific to these environments, and the procedures to follow to mitigate these

Module 14 - Highway working and excavations: the final module focuses on the hazards, controls and emergency procedures specific to working on highways or excavation sites, which is important for those working in the sewerage and drainage sectors

After each module, there is a brief assessment. Delegates need to pass each of these to gain a SHEA Drains and Sewers Card. Your virtual card will be available within three business days via the Vircarda app. A plastic card is also available if needed, and this usually arrives within five working days.
