Customer Feedback

Why Is LEV Awareness Training Course Important?

Exposure to airborne contaminants in the workplace can lead to serious, long-term health issues, including respiratory diseases, occupational asthma and even early death. In the UK, thousands of workers suffer ill health each year due to exposure to harmful dusts, fumes and vapours used or generated during routine work tasks.

Local exhaust ventilation systems are a key form of control in many of these environments and are often a legal requirement where hazardous substances are present. However, these systems can only protect workers if they are used correctly and consistently. Employers have a duty to ensure that anyone who relies on LEV for their safety is aware of the risks it is designed to control and understands how to use it appropriately.

LEV Awareness Training supports this duty by providing essential knowledge of system types, health risks, legal responsibilities and safe working practices. It supports employer training obligations and helps employees minimise risks when working in environments where airborne contaminants are present.
