Our expertise within Health and Safety lies in the following key areas:

• Developing the health and safety skills, knowledge and awareness of people at work
• Developing the competence of health and safety practitioners
• Assisting companies to develop and implement Health and Safety policies and procedures.

DBT provides two distinct qualification areas in Health and Safety.

• For people at work - the Health and Safety for People at Work Awards
• S/NVQs in Occupational Health and Safety Practice

For People at Work - the Health and Safety for People at Work Awards

These qualifications have been endorsed by the HSE and IOSH. They are a collection of stand alone units for people who have responsibility for health and safety.

What's available?

How can they be used?

1. They can be used to the benefit of both the individual and the employer.
2. The individual benefits by receiving training and support to develop their competence.
3. The employer benefits by having a workforce that is competent to fulfil its health and safety responsibilities.
4. In turn, this enables the employer to demonstrate that it complies with applicable health and safety.

For Health and Safety Practitioners

David Brown Training offers S/NVQs in Occupational Health and Safety Practice at Levels III and IV. Both qualifications are available from either City and Guilds or SQA.

These qualifications satisfy the legal requirements placed on employers who need to demonstrate the competence of those appointed to ensure the health, safety and welfare of their employees.

• S/NVQ in Occupational Health and Safety Practice at Level 3
• S/NVQ in Occupational Health and Safety Practice at Level 4
