Posted By OLATEJU I have just started a self-sponsored NEBOSH Diploma course in Occupational Health and Safety and presently I am unemployed due to relocation to London. I started this course a day after my notice period lapsed in October, 2008. I need a work placement for the Unit D assignment. I have talked to my training provider and I was told I would have to shoulder the responsibility. Unfortunately, I happen to be the only one unemployed, others are sponsored by their respective companies. I have been trying ever since I started to get one, but all to no avail. Aside this course, I have MSc in Environmental Management and 3yr working experience in related fields. Please I would not mind any advice or help given. Thank you, Kenny

Posted By OLATEJU Hello MR97, Thank you so much for your response. I was working in a UKAS accredited laboratory with an environmental analytical company, which has been certified with ISO 14001 Environmental Management System Standard, ISO 17025:2005 Quality Management System Standard, and Safety Management System Standard OHSAS 18001. All these standards are adhered to and regular audit is conducted to monitor compliance with relevant documented procedures and guidelines. Unit D assignment is a workplace project that involves critical assessment of the organisation Occupational Health and Safety management system. Audit review and gap analysis of current health and safety management practices are conducted to identify compliance and non-compliance with relevant regulations, standards and guidelines. Recommendations for improvements are given to the summary of gaps identified. Action plans are developed on how to implement and monitor the recommended improvement measures. This project work will be backed up with utmost confidentiality. I hope the overview of Unit D assignment is okay. Kind regards, Kenny
