NEBOSH General Certificate Block Course

This course incorporates a wide appreciation of health and safety at work, including legal responsibilities, accident investigation techniques, COSHH and risk assessment.

Health and Safety is a very complex, diverse and specialised function, especially with all the new legislation and EC Directives. It is a legal requirement for all companies to appoint a ‘competent person’ to assist with health and safety. This certificate will help satisfy this requirement.
