WHY DO I NEED THIS COURSE?
Health and safety is a key performance measure within successful and forward-thinking organizations. Effective leaders understand that health and safety is not just a moral imperative, but also contributes to the achievement of objectives across the organizational spectrum covering finance, operations, compliance and governance.
Productivity improvements, competitive advantage, talent retention and effective risk management are just a few of the things which flow from strong organizational health and safety performance and culture.
Whether it is finance, marketing, human resources, or health and safety, leaders should always seek to develop their high-level understanding within each component part of their organization in order to monitor and positively influence overall performance. The NEBOSH HSE Certificate in Health and Safety Leadership Excellence is designed to support both savvy and aspiring leaders in gaining core understanding of how their behaviors and responsibilities directly impact on health and safety management
