South Africa develops Qualification for Health and Safety Advisor
The South Africa Mining Qualifications Authority is developing a general Occupational Health and Safety Advisor qualification, the first in an anticipated succession of qualifications for safety professionals, reports Sheqafrica.
The draft Occupational Safety Curriculum for Safety Representatives and Safety Practitioners (Advisors) is circulated among work group members. The MQA acts as a mining sector education and training authority, or mining Seta, and may appoint a training assessor, named assessment quality partner (AQP), on 6 March 2012.
The SA Mining Qualifications Authority (MQA) had applied to the QCTO to be a Development Quality Partner (DQP) in establishing mining safety qualifications. The process requires high levels of resources, expertise, and the cost of hosting volunteer drafters.

It is nice to hear that the South African Company were developing this Health and safety measure for occupation or worker of that mining firm. Although it require a high level of resources for this training but it is really great advantage to have wide occupation safety while in workplaces.

I was recently promoted to occupational health and safety manager and I live in a small town.
