What is NEBOSH Health and Safety at Work Award?

The NEBOSH Health and Safety at Work Award is an excellent starting point for anyone looking to gain a better understanding of workplace health and safety. Suitable for employees at all levels, the qualification focuses on key health and safety principles rather than detailed legal requirements.

The course covers how to identify and control common workplace hazards, supporting businesses in reducing accidents, incidents and injuries. Learners are assessed through a practical workplace-based assessment, which includes completing a risk assessment.

More than 35,000 people worldwide have achieved the NEBOSH Health and Safety at Work Award, gaining valuable knowledge and practical skills that can be applied in the workplace. Many organisations choose this qualification to develop their employees, strengthen their safety culture and support staff retention.

At SM Safety Training, we can also adapt the course content to suit your organisation, including relevant case studies and workplace hazards specific to your industry.

This qualification replaces the previous NEBOSH Award in Health and Safety at Work.

  • Element 2: Dealing with common workplace hazards

  • Selects the most important issue for improvement

This assessment is designed to test your ability to put into practice what you have learnt and, as it is carried out in the workplace, can add instant value to your organisation. Once you have achieved a pass, a qualification parchment will be issued within 20 working days of the confirmation of the successful unit.
