SPA Safety Passport – Core and Petrol Retail

SPA Safety Passport – Core and Petrol Retail Training  

Did you know, all contractors working on Petrol Forecourts must hold a ‘Petrol Safety Passport’?

Quality Safety Training is proud to offer the SPA accredited Core and Petrol Retail Passport.

This course is designed for any contractor conducting work on or inside a Petrol Garage / Petrol Forecourt. Whether you’re responsible for pump maintenance, signage, or even changing a lightbulb in the forecourt shop –  the Contractor Petrol Retail Passport is adopted near-universally and considered best practice within the petroleum retail industry.

Course Objectives:

– Core: Provide a basic ‘floor’ of health and safety procedure, introducing hazard perception, risk awareness, and best practices on site.

– Petrol Retail: Build on this understanding to concentrate risk awareness specifically in the context of a live Petrol Retail environment.

Duration:

This is a two day course.
Day one centres on the six ‘Core‘ Safety Passport Modules.
Day two builds on this, through the completion of two Petrol Retail Modules.
