substance in the workplace.
2. Analyze completed
checklist to come to
conclusions as to what
hazardous substance is

elements according to
COSHH.
Test Item
1. Imagine you are drafting
the COSHH legislation.

to health setting out what
you consider to be the
essential identifying
elements of such
substances.
2. Performance direction:
Share and discuss your
definition with your small
group. Together consider
the COSHH definition of a
substance hazardous to
health and come to a
general consensus as to
which members definition
came the closest to that set
out in the legislation.

1. Performance direction:
In your small groups, list at
least 2 hazardous
substances that can be
found in your workplace
that you consider fall into
the different COSHH
categories of substances
hazardous to health, as
listed in your handout as
follows:
Toxic
Very toxic
Corrosive
Harmful
Irritant

Given a worksheet
1. COSHH warning
depicting COSHH
symbols are used to label
hazardous substance
hazardous substances in
warning symbols, correctly order to indicate their level
name the type of
of danger. Next to the
hazardous substance the
COSHH categories listed
warning symbol describes. on your handout draw your
own warning symbol for
each.
2. Consider the worksheet
depicting unlabeled
COSHH hazardous
substance warning
symbols. Use the images to
guess the possible
meanings of the warning
symbols. Note down your
thoughts in readiness for
group discussion.
2. In groups, match the
symbols to hazardous
substance description cards
provided by your instructor.
Once you have come to a
general consensus as to the
meanings of the warning
signs, complete your
worksheet for your future
reference.
Objective
Test Item
1. Performance direction:
Within your group, discuss
the visual scenario and
identify the point at which
the worker is exposed to
the hazardous substance. Is
this scenario likely to be
depicting short- or longterm exposure and why?
Discuss and list the
potential health
consequences to the worker
of the exposure.

amongst groups providing
feedback during
discussion.
Subordinate Skills
3.1 Name the health
consequences of short- and
long-term exposure to the
different hazardous
substances.
Objective
When asked either orally
or in writing to set out the
health consequences of
exposure to different
hazardous substances,
identify one short-term and
one long-term consequence
per COSHH category.
Test Item
1. Consider your handout
which sets out a list of
potential health
consequences resulting
from exposure to
hazardous substances
(chemical burn/loss of
sight/cancer/asthma/
dermatitis, etc.). Using this
list, complete the shortterm and long-term
exposure consequences
tables under each COSHH
category.

tables in your small
groups, sharing examples
of situations where you or
someone you know has
experienced exposure to a
hazardous substance and

to a general consensus as
to the correct reporting
procedures. Share your
experiences with the group
have you utilized any of
the listed reporting

Objectives
1.1: When requested either orally or in writing to define hazardous substances, list the
various categories of hazardous substances which set out their essential identifying
elements according to COSHH.
2.1: When requested either orally or in writing to name various hazardous substances
typically found in the workplace, name those hazardous substances covered by COSHH.
At least 12 hazardous substances should be named per group.
2.2: Given a worksheet depicting COSHH hazardous substance warning symbols, correctly
name the type of hazardous substance the warning symbol describes.
Student Participation
Content: Introduce the workshop by explaining its purpose 1) to provide understanding of
COSHH hazard categorization and potential health risks of exposure to the same; 2) to
provide training in correct internal reporting procedures in relation to various hazardous
substances that participants are likely to encounter in the workplace. Learner attention shall
be gained by explaining the benefits of the instruction; namely, to increase team safety at
work by minimizing incidences of exposure to hazardous substances.
Application: Examples of hazardous substances found in the workplace will be provided
by the learners from their own experiences. Learners will encode information provided by
setting out their own definition of substances hazardous to health and providing examples
of hazardous substances within their own workplaces, thus linking new information to
existing knowledge. Learners will build personal schemas in relation to hazardous
substance identification by devising their own visual representations of warning symbols
alongside COSHH hazardous substances category lists. Social negotiation of concepts to
take place through group discussion.
Media Selection: Power point presentation slides setting out learning objectives to focus
learner attention and COSHH definition. Worksheet depicting unlabeled warning symbols
and hazardous substance description cards.

Content Presentation
Content: The learners will consider the visual scenario in order to identify and classify the
specific hazardous substance depicted. The learners will be directed by the instructor to
consider, by use of the visual scenario, the essential elements involved in classifying any
particular hazard. The learners will then be directed to consider how they might utilize their
understanding of the COSHH categories to correctly identify the type of hazardous
substance depicted.
Application: The learners will utilize a checklist to categorize the type of hazardous
substance depicted. In this way an organized understanding of the concepts presented is
created to facilitate effective cognitive processing of the information. The learner utilizes
the checklist to diagnose the hazardous substance, reflecting real-world application of
knowledge and thus promoting transfer.
Media Selection: Video visual depiction of hazard scenario. Classification checklist.
