Why Is Biohazard Cleaning Training Course Important?
Employers in the UK must protect staff and the public from exposure to biological hazards in the workplace. To meet this duty, you need clear processes for safely cleaning biohazards and disposing of contaminated materials.
Incidents involving blood or body fluids are rare in most workplaces but can occur anywhere, particularly in spaces open to the public. Cleaners who may face these situations must be given appropriate training so they can carry out their duties without unreasonable risk.
This CPD-certified course is designed to help non-healthcare staff respond safely to incidents involving blood, body fluids or contaminated sharps. It provides awareness-level guidance on preparing for, carrying out and completing biohazard cleaning – from setting up safe zones and using PPE correctly through to handling and disposing of contaminated waste.
By preparing cleaners for these rare but serious incidents, this online biohazard cleaning course helps organisations protect people on site and meet their legal duties. On completion, trainees receive a digital certificate that supports compliance and demonstrates due diligence to clients, insurers and regulators.
