schedule20th Jan 20

The new McCarthy Environmental Centre of Excellence, based at our Swan Valley head office in Northampton, is the only one of its kind in the region and offers a range of Local Exhaust Ventilation (LEV) and Occupational Hygiene related courses. 

The courses combine classroom learning with practical demonstrations on equipment in our purpose built training facility. Courses will equip businesses and staff with a practical understanding of how LEV systems work and the responsibilities for both employers and employees. The training will help businesses to comply with current regulations under CoSHH, whilst learning about exposure to fumes, dust and contaminants in the workplace.

Occupational Hygienist Amy Jackson has joined the McCarthy Environmental team to run its new Centre of Excellence. With over 20 years' experience as a Health & Safety Consultant, Amy has been undertaking the provision of health & safety services including statutory LEV testing and examinations, occupational hygiene monitoring and health & safety training and documentation.

All courses will feature a short multiple choice examination, course notes and hands-on demonstrations with LEV equipment. Endorsed by the BOHS, each candidate's examination is independently marked and assessed by the BOHS and successful candidates are awarded a BOHS Certificate of Achievement.

The course has been designed for:

  • Employers
  • Managers, including those responsible for production, building facilities and maintenance
  • SHEQ managers
  • Engineers, including production and design engineers
  • Maintenance personnel
  • Supervisors and team leaders
  • Employees and operatives.
