NEBOSH IGC

NEBOSH IGC:

   The NEBOSH International General Certificate is also suitable for those embarking on a career in health and safety, providing a valuable foundation for further professional study (such as the NEBOSH International Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety).

    The International General Certificate is modelled on the NEBOSH National General Certificate in Occupational Health and Safety, the most widely recognised health and safety qualification of its kind in the UK.

     The key difference between the two qualifications is in the applicability of legal requirements. Rather than being guided by a specifically UK framework, the International General Certificate takes a risk management approach based on best practice and international standards, such as International Labour Organisation (ILO) codes of practice, with special reference 

    the model proposed in the ILO's "Guidelines on Occupational Safety and Health Management Systems" (ILO-OSH 2001). Local laws and cultural factors form part of the study programme where relevant and appropriate.

. 

   Many larger organisations choose the NEBOSH qualifications as a key part of their supervisors’ or management development programme. By ensuring that line managers have a sound understanding of the principles of risk management they build an effective safety culture in the organisation.

  Smaller organisations, operating in lower risk environments, often choose the NEBOSH International General Certificate in Occupational.
