<br/><br/> This volume fully covers the syllabus for the NEBOSH Certificate in Construction Safety and Health. It has been updated in line with changes in legislation regarding fire safety, noise and vibration, work at height, construction design and control of hazardous substances.  This NEBOSH-endorsed textbook is matched to the latest syllabus of the National Certificate in Construction Safety and Health. Within the construction industry the need for specialist health and safety training is high due to the high risks involved. This is reflected in recent legislation such as CDM 2007 and explains the consistent demand for courses and learning materials. The text is easy to read, highly illustrated in full color, and supported with checklists, report forms and record sheets used currently in the industry. Students are supported with end-of-chapter questions, a study skills chapter and specimen assignments including specimen answers. As NEBOSH actively grow their qualifications internationally, demand for this book and it's sister titles continues to increase overseas. High growth markets are the Middle East, Malaysia, India and China.
