Laser Safety Training
Comprehensive laser safety training is to the latest laser safety standards, European Directives, and UK Law
All persons using lasers should receive laser safety training. For Class 1M, 2M and 3R lasers this training may be quite concise. In addition all organisations using Class 3B, Class 4 or Invisible Class 3R lasers must have a Laser Safety Officer who should have received appropriate training.
