Air Cadets from 2461
(Sawston) Squadron have added a new qualification to their CV by completing the
Health and Safety Entry Level Award in association with the British Safety Council.
The Squadron has been
recognised by the Air Cadet Organisation for its commitment to the education of
young people about health and safety in the workplace following training
delivered by qualified Squadron staff.
The content of the training includes; hazards, safety signs, personal
protective equipment, fire safety and staying safe in general.
The training saw cadets
complete a workbook and various supporting evidence such as diagrams and their
own innovative safety signs. The
qualification will help when the cadets start looking for a job and did not
cost them a penny to gain!
Cadet Alex Baker said “This qualification was really fun to gain;
the learning was interactive and made me think about health and safety in the
environment I am in.”
Flying Officer Chris Cox
added “This qualification is a fantastic
opportunity for the cadets to gain a valuable qualification whilst undertaking
activity alongside their friends. The
qualification demonstrates our commitment to both health and safety and the
development of young people in and around the Sawston area.”
