COSHH – Control of Substances Hazardous to Health

All businesses are legally required to implement COSHH controls. According to the 1974 Health and Safety at Work Act, they are indispensable for employees and the general public.

Ascot Wholesale’s responsibility is to ensure that all staff are adequately trained in COSHH controls. This is a key part of your role in maintaining a safe and compliant workplace.

The Health and Safety Executive has generously provided numerous resources to assist you in this, which we have listed below. We encourage you to go through these with your team.
