Career Development for Health and Safety Practitioners

CONTEXT

• Many current Health and Safety Practitioners are not adequately qualified, competent, skilled, or experienced enough to adequately advise on Health and safety Risks.

• There are many reasons for this but the main one is the lack of Suitable Career Development, from start to finish

Current Challenges

• Field Related– Health and Safety is not a high enough Priority– Health and Safety is seen as an EXPENSE rather than as

an INVESTMENT.– Lack of incentive to develop Skills.– Productivity VS Profit – No standardisation between sectors on what

qualifications, experience and skills are needed.

Education and Training

• Limited Higher education Qualifications• Limited Providers of Higher education and

Training.• Limited trainers, facilitations and lecturers• Limited scoping of Occupational Profile• Mismatch of qualifications to Field

requirements( Fit for Purpose)• Limited or mismatched Funding• Limited Practical Learning and transference.

Employees

• Limited Professional development• Resistance to life long learning• Resistance to skill development• Health and Safety Practitioners need to move

to Health and Safety Professionals• Perception of Health and Safety (Limited

Professionalisation)

“People are the only element with the inherent

power to generate value.

All other variables - cash and its cousin credit, materials, plant and equipment, and energy — offer nothing but inert potentials.

By their nature, they add nothing, and they

cannot add anything until some human being,

be it the lowest level operator, the most ingenious professional, or the loftiest executive, leverages that potential by putting it into

play”. The ROI of Human CapitalJac FitzenzAmerican Management Association 2000
