Combined Nebosh National General and Construction Certificate

Overview

The NEBOSH National Certificate in Construction Health and Safety (NCC) and the NEBOSH National General Certificate in Occupational Health and Safety (NGC) are nationally and internationally recognised qualifications. They are both designed to help those with health and safety responsibilities, for example managers, supervisors, CDM co-ordinators and employee representatives, from construction or other type organisations, making day-to-day decisions at work. They will give them a broad understanding of health and safety issues and enable them to manage risks, within workplace activities, effectively.

Many people take the NEBOSH NCC and/or the NEBOSH NGC as a first step in a career in health and safety. The qualifications both meet the academic requirements for Technical membership (Tech IOSH) of the Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH). They provide a valuable overview and are a sound basis for further professional study.

Target Audience

The NEBOSH NCC and the NEBOSH NGC are aimed at Supervisors, Managers, CDM co-ordinators and employee representatives, within industry who are required to ensure that activities under their control are undertaken safely. They are likely to prove useful for those concerned with the management of buildings who may need to ensure that contractors are working safely. The qualifications are also appropriate for supervisors and managers working in other industries such as utilities, and even broadcasting, where temporary workplaces are a feature of their activities.
