Earlier this year we resolved to be better trained, better informed and generally better prepared for the challenges of another busy fireworks season. This month two of our staff have been attending classes which will take us a step nearer achieving our goal. Our Display Manager Hayley Maddin completed a First Aid course, which means that if any of us are bruised, burned, scalded or electrocuted (to name just a few of the many hazards lurking in any office) she can now administer an assortment of bandages, lotions and resuscitation procedures. Meanwhile our Operations Manager David Willsher has been immersed in NEBOSH - the National Examination Board in Occupational Safety & Health. It's quite a mouthful, and so is the course! Two solid weeks of training followed by a week of revision followed by an exam. At the end of itall, David will know his CoSHH*from his CoMAH**and his CAD*** from his CLER****, all of which should mean that Fantastic Fireworks ticks the right safety boxes.
* Control of Substances Hazardous to Health
** Control of Mass Accident Hazard
*** Classification and Authorisation Document
**** Classifcation and Labelling of Explosives Regulations
