Our e-learning is a must for all businesses that are passionate about improving the productivity, safety and overall health and wellbeing of their workforce.
Learn how Drinkaware at Work can support your business.
The need for everyone to maintain a healthy lifestyle has been particularly highlighted with the outbreak of Covid-19. But despite this, our research found that many employees, from a wide range of sectors and professions, actually increased their drinking after the outbreak of the pandemic.
The concern is that if people continue to drink at higher levels, without understanding the potential implications, this presents a real risk to their long-term physical and mental health. The Drinkaware at Work e-learning course provides an ideal introduction to alcohol education and is suitable for all employees as part of a supportive induction programme, wellbeing initiative or health and safety training.
The course is accredited by both the CPD Certification Service and the Royal Society for Public Health (RSPH).
