Nebosh FIRE Safety and RISK ASSESSMENT |  |   |
The NEBOSH Fire Safety and Risk Management Certificate aims to build on the success of the NEBOSH National General Certificate. It provides an appropriate breadth of underpinning knowledge for non-specialists in fire safety to enable them to discharge more effectively their organisational duties or functions with respect to workplace firesafety.
The Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 emphasises the need for management of fire safety risks within the workplace. This course primarily discusses the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, but The Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 covers the same principles and ethos as the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
During the course tutors will explain the Scottish Legislation and supplementary materials issued so you are ready to work in Scotland.
