NEBOSH HSE Introduction to Incident Investigation

 

Other available dates: email us to book

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) and NEBOSH have jointly developed a new one day qualification that shows how non-complex incidents can be investigated effectively.

By learning lessons and making improvements, organisations can avoid similar incidents occurring in the future.

"If minor incidents and near-misses are investigated well, organisations could potentially prevent more serious or catastrophic incidents happening."

Jill De Nardo, Head of Commercial Training at HSE

Who should attend the NEBOSH HSE Introduction to Incident Investigation training?

This qualification is for anyone who wants to carry out incident investigations effectively.

• Produce an action plan to prevent a recurrence of an incident

The one day NEBOSH HSE Introduction to Incident Investigation covers the following topics:

How is the qualification assessed?
