About

Continuous learning and development by the leaders and workforce in an organisation is critical to achieving and maintaining the competence needed to enjoy excellent performance in health and safety.

Uniquely for a training company, our team at Yellow Triangle has historical and current involvement in the practical application and enforcement of health and safety law. We have been and are at the cutting edge of investigations and litigation, including trials and appeals. They bring to life the requirements of the legal framework governing work activities with real cases and examples to aid understanding.

We are passionate about helping your business learn from the mistake of others, to commit to improved performance and to help your people achieve a greater understanding and clear vision of the contribution they can and should make to help keep people at work, and those affected by work activities, safe and healthy.  This passion is channeled into innovative and engaging ways to inspire and inform audiences.
