NEBOSH Health and Safety Management for Construction

Description

NEBOSH is the UK’s leading Health & Safety Awarding Body and is gaining increasing international status. NEBOSH qualifications are recognised and respected by employers in all sections of employment and provide the benchmark standard against which others are compared. Since the 1970s, the principle that “those who create the risks must manage them” has been enshrined in the management of Health & Safety at work.
