SPA Petrol Retail

The SPA Petrol Retail course is ideally suited for people working in the petrol retailing sector including any contractors who may work at a petrol filling station. This two-day course will provide training on the hazards of a petrol forecourt as well as how to control work on a petrol forecourt to keep it as safe as possible.

Our SPA Petrol Retail course is a theory based course and will be conducted in a classroom environment. The two-day course is formed of an SPA Core Day course giving basic information about health and safety and the second day is focussed on specific hazards of working on a petrol forecourt.

The initial two-day course can be shortened if you already hold a recognised Health and Safety certificate/card; in this case, you would only be required to attend the SPA Petrol Retail section of the training (day 2 of our course). For more information to see if you are eligible for exemption please call us on 01702 561818.
