A Web of Resources

Some of you may already have seen the new RRC website which went live just before Christmas. The site has undergone a radical overhaul and now provides a wealth of information, both for RRC students, and for anyone with an interest in health, safety and environmental issues.

The RRC Training website still contains information on all of the courses we offer, allowing you to work out which courses are most suited to your needs, as well as providing you with the ability to book courses online. But the new site now offers you many more features, including:

• A weekly round-up of all the latest health, safety and environment news, so you are always up-to-date on the latest issues affecting the industry.

• Copies of RRC opinion pieces and articles that have appeared in leading newspapers and journals.

• Free downloads, including a free guide on the requirements of the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and a look at the lighter side of health and safety with RRC’s HSE joke book.

• Amusing monthly podcasts.

The new website will also include monthly podcasts which will take the form of amusing conversations between RRC Training’s health and safety experts and a fictional disgruntled businessman played by Jon Glover, well-known as Cholmondley-Warner in the Harry Enfield TV sketches.

These short, easily-digestible podcasts, focusing on a range of topical health and safety issues are intended to be both entertaining and informative and to be of value and interest to HSE professionals employed across all sectors.

Our first podcast, on the subject of fire, will be available to download from 1 February at www.rrc.co.uk.

The site also contains valuable information for those looking to implement health and safety training throughout their organisation, including the RRC Guide to Health and Safety Training, highlighting how to identify what training your staff need and how to go about ensuring you get it.

New downloads will be made available frequently, so it is worth visiting the site regularly to make sure you don’t miss out.
