The growth in health and safety legislation in the UK has meant that many organisations now employ staff with specific responsibility for guidance and advice regarding health and safety issues.

A simple internet job search reveals a large number of 'health and safety advisor' type jobs with salaries in the region of £25,000 in most cases.

Jobs of this type generally have two requirements:

• relevant industrial experience
• a NEBOSH National General Certificate

Whilst we cannot guarantee employment as a health and safety practitioner, we would certainly recommend health and safety as a potential career, particularly for those who have work experience in occupations which demand high levels of compliance to legislation.

We would particularly recommend a career in health and safety to those who would like to follow a different career path following redundancy, relocation, early retirement, etc. It is especially suited to people who have work experience which would provide a valuable starting point.

Learnon-line.co.uk in conjunction with Kawns Safety Services Ltd (kawns.com) can provide you with the training to gain the highly regarded NEBOSH National General Certificate. Our online learning systems enable you to study at your own pace at times that suit you. In order to sit NEBOSH examinations you must register as a candidate with an approved centre (fees are charged separately). Kawns Safety Services Ltd offer this facility and also provide additional face-to-face tuition sessions should you wish to use them.
