As with Amy, I teach the HSR 1 & 2 courses, and have had a number of students who have done the course before come back, either through choice or through instruction by their company. If they are in a new role, and especially if they are in a new company then a lot of the course would be valid and interesting as they are applying their new situation to the activities and case studies. If they are in the exact same role, and especially if they have done both HSR 1 & 2 during the past 3/4 years, then I would look for another training course to send them on, for example Incident Investigation, Manual Handling, Managing Contractors, Mental Health & Wellbeing etc.

As I teach my students in Level 1 H&S Rep courses, these type of boards/signs can be quite destructive in creating an open, transparent and trusting accident reporting culture in a workplace, especially where there is a reward associated with hitting a target of a certain amount of days with no LTI's etc. Is that vulnerable worker going to report that minor accident/injury or near miss if it means that his workmates are going to miss out on their morning tea shout, especially if that target is close to being achieved? In many cases no they won't. Thankfully for the vast majority of my clients this practice has been replaced with more positive reporting factors, i.e. the most new hazards reported, a target of training hours achieved, a programme of reviewing risk controls was completed and the like.
