STFC Safety, Health and
Environment (SHE) Codes
• SHE communication is an area the STFC needs
to improve and a simple demonstration of
effective safety management –
e-mail’s alone are not enough.
• This package is one of a series of STFC SHE
Code – updates, revisions and launches.
• Simple presentations will be available for all
Codes and should be used by STFC Managers at
all levels to cascade the key messages to all staff
and contractors.

Why SHE Training?
•
•
•
•
The Health & Safety at Work (etc) Act 1974 requires all
employers to provide “such information, instruction,
training and supervision as is necessary to ensure, so
far as is reasonably practicable, the health and safety at
work of their employees".
The knowledge and experience of staff established by
training and instruction provides a key basis for assuring
the safety of staff and others.
This code sets out the process by which the STFC ensures
and records that staff are competent to undertake work
within the STFC safely, without harming themselves, or
other’s health and the environment.
This code equally applies to the “information, instruction,
training” we provide for the safety of users, students,
visitors, contractors, tenants and temporary staff.

Classes of SHE Training
• Two classes of SHE training necessary to ensure
competence have been established:
– General mandatory SHE training; and
• Mandatory SHE training is a requirement for all
staff. This may take the form of general induction
training, on appointment to a new role or arrival at
an STFC site, or when staff take on managerial
responsibility for the safety of others, including
contractors, facility users or project teams.
– Job or hazard specific SHE training.
• Job or hazard specific training is determined by the
role or duties an individual undertakes within the
STFC and will be identified by you and your
manager. This may be formal courses or ‘On the
Job’ training provided by experienced staff.

Key features
•
•
•
Sets out responsibilities for Line Managers and
Employees to ensure mandatory SHE training is
undertaken and that the training needs of a job or
specific hazard are assessed by Manager and
Employee within 4 weeks of moving to a new role.
The training needs of staff in roles or undertaking a
specific activity can be helpfully assessed and
documented using a standard Risk Assessment
Highlights the need to identify SHE training needs on an
on-going basis - most helpfully during the APR process
and documented in L&D plans
– Note: to assist this process all revised SHE codes
define the training necessary to achieve
competence in managing a particular hazard.STFC SHE Group
