NEBOSH International General Certificate in Occupational Safety and Health Overview

About the NEBOSH International Certificate Qualification

The NEBOSH International General Certificate has been recognised for many years in the UK as the basis for a sound, broad introduction to the fundamentals of occupational health and safety. The key difference between the NEBOSH National Certificate and the NEBOSH International Certificate is in the applicability of legal requirements. While health and safety in the UK is underpinned by an established and well-structured set of legislative requirements, which cannot be excluded from a national award, this is less relevant in an international context. The NEBOSH International General Certificate syllabus therefore omits specific reference to any national legal requirements but, instead, focuses on international health and safety standards, in particular ILO codes of practice. In common with the NEBOSH national award, however, the NEBOSH syllabus is structured according to a recognized management framework.

The NEBOSH International General Certificate in Occupational Health and Safety has been designed for managers, supervisors, worker representatives and others who require a basic knowledge and understanding of health and safety principles and practices. It provides an appropriate breadth of knowledge for non-specialists in occupational health and safety to enable them to discharge more effectively their organisational duties or functions with respect to workplace health and safety. Candidates are likely to be employees of large organisations operating outside the UK, or of multinational companies already working to international health and safety standards but needing to adapt these to accord with local needs and health and safety practice.

No previous health and safety knowledge is required but students must be able to write short reports.
