Your FAQS
Is Anti Ligature Training A Legal Requirement?
In the UK, it is a legal requirement for all organisations to ensure the health, safety and welfare of everyone in the workplace. The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) has identified the risk of suicide in the workplace as a priority area, and therefore it is essential that staff are adequately trained to prevent these incidents from occurring.
Anti Ligature Training Is An Ofsted and CQC Requirement
This is also why Ofsted and CQC inspectors are continually requesting providers to evidence that staff are receiving ligature training. The inspectors want to be assured that staff are equipped with the necessary training in suicide prevention skills to enable them to manage self-harm/ligature incidents and save lives. Our training program is designed to meet the legal requirements set out by the HSE and the evidence required by Ofsted and CQC which you will need when they inspect you.
