How can we help?

Answers to the questions people ask most. Can't find yours? Contact us.

Getting started

How do I start?

Create a free account on this website or in the iPhone app. You get a daily general workplace alert and the Health and safety essentials course straight away.

Which plan do I need?

Basic adds alerts for your industry, monthly toolbox talks and every course with certificates. Pro adds weekly HSE news. Enterprise covers all 9 industries and adds legal and compliance updates.

Is there an app?

Yes, an iPhone app. It's being tested now and is coming soon to the App Store. Android isn't available yet.

Payments and access

I've paid but my plan hasn't unlocked

It should unlock as soon as the payment goes through. If it hasn't, contact us with your account email and the plan you bought, and we'll check it.

How do I cancel or get a refund?

Contact us with your account email. If you're buying as a consumer, the law gives you 14 days to cancel. The refund and cancellation policy has the details.

Notifications

I'm not getting notifications

Check that notifications are allowed for Ready Steady Safety in your iPhone's Settings, then open Account › Delivery in the app. If they still don't arrive, contact us with your phone model and app version.

Courses and certificates

How do I get a certificate?

On a paid plan, finish every lesson in a course and pass its final assessment in the app. You can then get a certificate of completion as a PDF.

How can an employer check a certificate?

They can scan the QR code on it, or enter its number on the certificate check page.

Is a certificate a qualification?

No. It shows someone completed an online awareness course and passed its assessment. It isn't accredited and doesn't on its own show competence for a task.

Your account

I've forgotten my password

Use Forgot password? on the log-in page. If the email doesn't arrive within a few minutes, check your junk folder, then contact us and we'll help.

How do I delete my account?

In the app, go to Account and request deletion, or use the account deletion page on this website. Cancelling a paid plan is separate, so cancel that too if you're paying.

Ready Steady Safety supports safety communication. It doesn't replace site-specific risk assessments, training, supervision or competent advice.
