Posted By lawrence baldwin Peter I can't remember whether I contacted yourself on this subject before, my apologies if I have, I left the RN 9.5 years ago after 22 years, and worked my way through various organisations upwards to my current position as Group HSE Manager for Bristow Helicopters at Aberdeen. I passed the NVQ4 route and now a corporate member of iosh. There is another ex service guy who contacted me, I think through this forum, who is working his way through this minefield working for an oil related company on the same industrial estate. So there are many of us around. If I can help please feel free to give me a shout.

Posted By Gerry Walmsley Peter, Please accept my response and add me to your list of people wishing to help ex-servicemen in our field. I am an ex CRS(W)from the RN leaving in 1991. On leaving the RN I started in training at Ford Motor Company Dagenham where I qualified professionally for CIPD gaining an MSc in HRD. I then switched to H&S in 1999 having completed a NEBOSH Certificate, DIP 1 and recently NVQ4. I work in the automotive manufacturing industry where I am an Environment, Health & Safety Advisor at a plant with 500 employees. I am also on the East Anglian Engineers Employers Federation H&S Consultative Committee with many other professionals in our trade. Some of which are ex servicemen. We meet quarterly. So if I can't help I'm sure that I know someone who can. Kindest regards - Gerry Walmsley
