International General Certificate in Occupational Health and Safety ( NEBOSH IGC Exam - AR/EN )

The NEBOSH International General Certificate is also suitable for those embarking on a career in health and safety, providing a valuable foundation for further professional study ( such as the NEBOSH International Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety). The International General Certificate is modelled on the NEBOSH National General

Certificate in Occupational Health and Safety, the most widely recognized health and safety qualification of its kind in the UK.

The key difference between the two qualifications is in the applicability of legal requirements. Rather than being guided by a specifically UK framework, he International General Certificate takes a risk management approach based on best practice and international standards, such as International Labor Organization (ILO) codes of practice, its special reference to the model proposed in the ILO's "Guidelines on Occupational Safety and Health Management Systems" (ILO-OSH 2001). Local laws and cultural factors form part of the study programmed where relevant and appropriate.
