Phoenix Services Explosives Safety Training

Based on past research, it has been seen that organisations have identified training needs for groups of people regardless of their individual levels of competence. This has resulted in the following statistics:

· 22% of employers say that the skills of their workforce are not of the standard required. (2003 National Employers Skills Survey)

· The lack of basic skills costs a typical business, of 50 employees, £165,000 per year (Ernst and Young)

· UK productivity is 13% below that of other major economies (Office of National Statistics)

As can be seen, some employees have not fully benefited from training opportunities and a Companies limited training budget may have been wasted. Within the UK it is estimated that £4.5b is spent on training each year by employers, but this may not be used effectively. A Phoenix Services TNA can prevent skills shortages and the wasting of finance on inappropriate or unnecessary training.
