Health and Safety is probably THE most important part of any works undertaken day to day.  HATT provides courses to assist employers and employees to complete their projects safely and effectively.

Courses available include SPA passport training, with both first time and refresher courses available.  Classes are routinely available throughout the year at our Southampton and Stoke facilities, alternatively courses can also be delivered at client locations on request.

Spa Passport courses for first time or expired applicants are carried out over two days.  The first day covers core aspects of health and safety in the workplace.  Day two covers industry specific issues relating to working on Petrol Retail Stations. 

Renewals are delivered in a single day provided the holder has a minimum of 6 months remaining on their passport.

Working in a confined space can be both disorientating and dangerous.  Workers who carry out these jobs must receive quality training to ensure that when facing these dangerous working environments, they are trained and competent to carry out the work safely.

Training at HATT’s purpose built confined space facility attendees will deal with all aspects of working in confined spaces.  No matter if you are working in low, medium, or high risk environments HATT’s instructors will be able to lead you through all the necessary skills required to carry out these duties safely and with confidence.  In addition to theoretical aspects of confined space working, candidates will have practical tasks set inside our purpose-built facility.

The conditions that someone can take this course are:

CSPA Passports have a 3 year expiry date*ontent

After the successful completion of the 2 day Core and sector course a passport will be issued with a 3 year expiry date.

A one day refresher/renewal course can be completed by delegates ONLY if the renewal course falls within a nine month window, all except Petrol Retail, Vehicle Mis-Fuellers, Core Construction and the Mineral Products (previously known as the Quarry passport) – Please read importance notice below!

Six months prior to the passport expiry date and three months after the passport expiry date. This nine month window allows plenty of time to arrange a suitable date for refresher training.

We would recommend a date is booked to allow for unforeseen circumstances. A planned refresher course may have to be cancelled last minute and the next available course may run after the expiry window has ended. This will lead to a delegate having to sit the full two day course again!

There will be no time gained or lost when renewing a passport as only the year of expiry will change, the date will continue to fall on the original date.

For example:

A delegate successfully completes an SPA Core and Sector passport on 12th & 13th March 2015

The delegate will continue to keep the original anniversary date of the course.

The delegate will require a refresher/renewal course to fall within:

13th September 2017 (6 months prior)

The delegates’ passport will have an expiry date as 13th March 2018.

ONLY if a delegate fails to complete a refresher/renewal course within the 6 window will the date of the passport expiry change to the new course date.
