Course programme
Inadequate management of Health & Safety costs individuals, organisations and society dearly. These losses can be minimised by planning activities, organising and training staff, assessing the risk, implementing controls and monitoring their use, and periodically reviewing the system.
Managers and Supervisors making day to day decisions have a crucial role to play in any organisation’s Health & Safety management system; for it is the quality of these decisions that will determine successful outcomes. And success in Health & Safety is not only a legal requirement but is also a precursor to good management in general.
Aligned to CDM regulations, NEBOSH Health and Safety Management for Construction (UK) is guided by legislation but focussed on best practice. The broad syllabus includes:
- CDM roles and responsibilities
- Health and safety culture
- Assessing risk
- Managing change
- Excavation
- Demolition
- Mobile plant and vehicles
- Working at height
- Musculoskeletal health
- Work equipment
- Electricity
- Fire
- Chemical and biological agents
- Physical and psychological health.
With an emphasis on practical application, successful learners will be able to:
- Recognise, assess and control a range of common construction hazards
- Develop safe systems of work
- Take part in incident investigations
- Advise on the roles, competencies and duties under construction legislation
- Positively influence health and safety culture
- Confidently challenge unsafe behaviours
- Help manage contractors.
The assessment is an open book examination (OBE), which will be based on a realistic scenario, that will test both what you know and what you can do. You will be asked to carry out a series of tasks using evidence from the scenario and the underpinning knowledge gained through your studies and revision. You will have 48 hours to download, complete and submit your assessment.
