NEBOSH Health & Safety Management for Construction

Introduction:

Health and Safety appointed representatives who work in the Construction Industry are faced with a constant battle against ever changing Health and Safety legislation and the impact on their respective organisations. In addition EC regulations stipulate that Health and Safety representatives must be “competent” to perform the role.

The NEBOSH Construction certificate is a leading award in Construction health and safety and is designed to provide a sound breadth of underpinning knowledge that will enable people to discharge their legal duties more effectively with regard to health and safety in construction.

Who Should Attend:

Site managers, health and safety advisors and employee representatives in the construction industry and any personnel working under CDM regulations 2105. The NEBOSH Construction Certificate is a qualification both for those with construction management responsibilities and for those who are required to provide routine, day to day advice of health, safety and welfare in construction work
