Safety Pass Alliance (SPA) for Petrol Retail – two day course – Northern Ireland

The Safety Pass Alliance Passport scheme was developed by UK’s leading authority in health and safety to ensure that persons working on petrol forecourts are aware of the potential hazards and have a good understanding of health and safety in this unique environment. Many of the large petrol retailers such as Shell, BP, Exon, Co-op/Summerfield and Texaco endorse this scheme. Training Solutions NI Limited are the only provider of this training in Ireland. This is a two day course which includes the ‘core day’ and the site specific training day for those working on or around petrol forecourts.
