With reference to Max Bancroft remarks on "So glad the jobs page is going" http://www.iosh.co.uk/in...um=2&thread=20839&page=1


I would like to know what it takes to be a Health and Safety Practitioner with particular reference to training, exeperience and CPD. Moreover, what is the future of H&S in years to come?. To shed light on this, what about product safety, design safety etc?. How about related discipline like Environmental Management and Quality? How about project management, team management and finance?

Such a big question.

Integrity, people and communication skills, diplomacy, enthusiasm and guts.

Serious head on for just a mo and I would like to add that the position of H&S Officer/Manager/Director seems to becoming one of H&S, Quality Management, Enviromental Management, DDA, and Technical stuff depending on your background.

What on earth are we to call ourselves???

Oh God,
Lets not delude ourselves, please. And if we have to make ourselves more important than we realy are lets do it modestly.

In fact what it will take you is this...

A couple of O levels
A Nebosh Certificate or some kind of constraction certificate
A Nebosh Diploma (optional and murky or peculiar)

then you are a Graduate Member

Next, a couple of years and a manipulated portfolio you are chartered.

Nothing more and nothing less.

I am sure someone can come up with a five page justification argument against the above, which is perhaps another trait of what it may also take like the two mails above me.

Please note I have two goes on that thread and so be sure to read the second one as well. But really have a look at Jim Walker's about halfway down.
