BUILDING SAFETY ACT AWARENESS eLEARNING

This course is for you if you work in the design, construction, or management of higher-risk buildings.


The risks associated with unsafe building design, construction, and management can range from minor incidents to serious harm or loss of life. Failures in fire safety or structural integrity can have devastating consequences, especially in higher-risk residential buildings.


The Building Safety Act 2022 sets out legal responsibilities for dutyholders, requiring them to manage and mitigate these risks through robust systems, competent personnel, and accurate, accessible information.


This Building Safety Act Awareness course will teach learners how to understand, identify, and manage building safety risks, maintain the Golden Thread, comply with the new regime for higher-risk buildings, and ensure the safety of residents. By completing this course, organisations and individuals will be better equipped to comply with the Building Safety Act 2022 and protect people in their buildings.

On completion of this course, learners will understand:

  • The purpose of the Building Safety Act 2022.
  • How to identify higher-risk buildings and their scope.

  • How to recognise the three Gateways in the building lifecycle.

  • The role and powers of the Building Safety Regulator.

As an employer, you must ensure that all employees are informed, trained and competent. To support all learners, this course includes English voiceovers to enhance accessibility and understanding. Audio narration helps reinforce key concepts and supports individuals with visual impairments or reading difficulties, creating a more inclusive and effective learning experience.
