NEBOSH GIC
The NEBOSH International General Certificate (IGC) has been replaced by the NEBOSH General Certificate in Occupational Health and Safety (GIC) as part of NEBOSH’s efforts to modernise and streamline its qualifications. The new GIC reflects updated industry standards and best practices, ensuring that learners gain relevant, practical knowledge aligned with current global health and safety requirements. This change also simplifies the qualification structure, making it easier for candidates to understand and employers to recognise.
The transition from IGC to GIC means that the syllabus has been refreshed to focus on risk management principles, practical application, and leadership in health and safety. While the core objectives remain similar, providing a strong foundation in occupational health and safety, the GIC introduces a more contemporary approach, including scenario-based assessments and real-world case studies. This ensures that learners are better prepared to apply their knowledge effectively in diverse workplace environments.Food Safety
Food safety is a critical system of handling, preparing, and storing food to prevent foodborne illnesses caused by bacteria, viruses, and chemical contaminants. It relies on core principles such as cleaning hands and surfaces regularly, separating raw meats from produce to prevent cross-contamination, and cooking foods to their correct internal temperatures to kill pathogens. Additionally, chilling perishables quickly is essential to keep food out of the temperature ranges where bacteria multiply most rapidly. By maintaining high standards of personal hygiene and environmental sanitation, the risk of spreading infections is significantly reduced, ensuring that the food remains both nutritious and safe for consumption.NEBOSH Level 6 International Diploma for Occupational Health and Safety Management Professionals
