Arco has opened its latest safety training centre in Hull.
The new site is the latest investment in Arco’s Professional Safety Services training facilities.
This facility follows its ongoing investment in its National Distribution Centre (NDC) site to develop its learning academy and new Customer Discovery Centre.
The training centre includes a confined space labyrinth and working at height course with safe access to the rooftop of the National Distribution Centre. It also features a multitude of classroom-based courses, increasing accessibility to critical safety education.
As part of the Arco Professional Safety Services offering, the company also provides mobile confined space units for bespoke training in any location. Following Arco’s £200,000 investment in 2023, these units can simulate risks in different environments for businesses across Yorkshire.
Jamie Sadler, commercial director at Arco Professional Safety Services, said: “We have invested significantly in our NDC site this year to make safety more accessible for our customers. This new centre of excellence demonstrates Arco’s approach to the future of health and safety; putting innovation, convenience and high-standards at the forefront.
“Working at height and confined spaces remain the most dangerous environments and therefore they require expert training and support. Access to bespoke training that provides people with the correct skills and capabilities to carry out their work safely is essential. Whether it is equipment, training or support, our experienced teams offer a complete solution.”
