Why You Should Complete An Occupational Health And Safety Level 6 NVQ

What Is The Occupational Health And Safety Level 6 NVQ?

The National Vocational Qualification (NVQ) Level 6 Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety Practice is a modern work-related qualification. The qualification is determined by the proof provided by each individual, which is inspired by real, on-the-job training. You may even leverage your old records as proof to help you get an NVQ certificate. The Institution of Occupational Health (IOSH) acknowledges this certification as a pathway to membership. 

 

Recognition Of The NVQ

This certification ensures that people who have an impact on health and safety regulations in their companies have the necessary expertise. If you have properly finished or are in the midst of finishing an NVQ Level 5 within the previous 5 years, you may be able to upgrade your certification to Level 6. Your evidence bundle will need to be re-evaluated and uploaded. We are unable to re-evaluate evidence that is older than 5 years since it is deemed obsolete.

 

Who Should Take The Occupational Health And Safety NVQ?

The NVQ Level 6 Health and Safety is aimed at people who give health and safety support in companies with substantial hazards and complicated dangers, particularly practising health and safety advisers with policy-making responsibilities or those seeking to become safety experts. You’ll need to know a little about health and safety. In order to create and record evidence, you must also work in a health and safety function inside your company.
