According to ADR 1.3:
- Employees must be trained before performing their duties
- Training must be documented
- Companies are responsible for compliance
- Training must be periodically refreshed
Failure to comply can result in:
- Fines and penalties

- Reputational damage
👉 This course helps your organization meet these legal obligations.
