Safety Health and Environmental Awareness SHEA Telecommunications

Safety Health and Environmental Awareness SHEA Telecommunications

Our Safety Health and Environmental Awareness SHEA suite of schemes have been developed in collaboration with industry to provide a uniform approach to health, safety and environmental awareness training across the utilities sector, in line with Health and Safety Executive guidelines.

Our SHEA Telecommunications scheme is designed for individuals who require access to operational sites within the telecommunications industry, both permanent and temporary, at all levels including operatives, supervisors and management.

The SHEA Telecommunications scheme comprises of seven modules. Six modules are ‘core’ modules and are relevant for all utility industries and support workplace practice in relation to health, safety and environmental law. The seventh module provides the telecommunication industry specific content. It is designed to provide evidence that an individual has demonstrated an appropriate level of knowledge, understanding and behavioural awareness. Individuals must complete all seven modules and pass the SHEA Telecommunications assessment to gain EUSR SHEA Telecommunications registration. It is an Energy & Utility Skills Passport scheme and does not indicate any level of technical competence or skilled expertise.
