What is the Safety Officer Course?

The Safety Officer course is a very practical training course developed specifically for Safety Officers that assist companies to manage compliance with South African legislation. Anyone interested in entering a career in the Health & Safety industry should complete this course.

The Safety Officer course package includes a group of courses all in one:
