Are You Eligible for NVQ Level 6 Health and Safety Management?
The NVQ Level 6 in Health and Safety Manager qualification is best suited for experienced construction site, project, or contract managers who are responsible for the development, implementation, and monitoring of health and safety procedures on construction sites. Commonly, these individuals are either employed directly by the main contractor or work for a large construction specialist company.
As an expert in a health and safety management role, you're expected to have an in-depth understanding of organizational health and safety protocols and procedures. To qualify for the enrolment, you are required to be directly engaged in the implementation of health and safety measures on the site.

Your supplied evidence can be from your current as well as previous projects, and it should demonstrate your ability to do the following:
•
develop, implement, and maintain health and safety procedures on site
•
carry out risk assessments and introduce necessary safety measures
•
conduct site inspections to ensure compliance with health and safety regulations
•
train and instruct site staff on health and safety protocols
•
keep updated records of incidents, near misses, and corrective actions taken

engage with site staff, subcontractors, and stakeholders to promote and improve site safety culture
•
coordinate and conduct emergency procedures and first aid arrangements
•
manage and monitor protective equipment usage to ensure compliance
•
conduct and document regular safety meetings, toolbox talks, and safety training sessions
It's important to understand that different companies use different types of information and documentation. Your task is to demonstrate and explain how you implement health and safety procedures in your work environment.

How It Works?
Typically, it takes two assessment sessions to cover the health and safety assessment criteria. The nature of these sessions, whether they involve a site visit or not, depends largely on the quality of evidence we receive from you and your individual circumstances. However, in 90% of cases, we can proceed without a site visit, relying on video calls instead.
While the assessment process can vary depending on the route you've selected at the time of your booking (for options, see the booking form), we can outline typical steps you can expect during your assessment. However, given the dynamic nature of our industry, we consistently endeavour to tailor the process to best accommodate your unique circumstances.
For simplicity, let’s break down the process of a typical level 6 health and safety assessment into six chronological steps.
Step 1: Introduction
You will receive an instructional email as startup guidance, which will include a list of product evidence examples and suggestions for effective collaboration methods with your assessor. This will help you identify the evidence you need to compile for your assessment portfolio.
Step 2: Welcome Call
You will arrange an induction call (usually a video call) to discuss the assessment requirements, your work, and the product evidence from your current or previous jobs. During this call, you'll agree on the next steps and gain a clear understanding of what you need to do to prepare for the first assessment session. The assessor will also email you any required course materials.
Step 3: Compile Evidence
Based on the guidance and advice provided by the assessor, you will start compiling evidence (if not already available) for the first assessment session.
Step 4: The Assessment
Once you have gathered sufficient evidence for the first session, you will arrange a video call to discuss all the files and explain your work process and methods. The first session is generally designed to cover around 50% of the assessment criteria.
Step 5: Assessment Progress
Following the first session, the assessor will review all the evidence and conduct a gap analysis to identify the remaining criteria. You will receive feedback on the necessary steps to address these criteria. Once you have gathered the additional evidence, you can arrange your next session, which may involve an onsite visit or a video call based on the evidence quality and your circumstances.
Step 6: Completion
During this session, our goal is to address all the remaining criteria to complete your assessment. In most cases, this marks the final session. Once we have covered 100% of the assessment criteria, we will compile and finalize your portfolio. Then, we will proceed to claim your NVQ achievement from the Awarding Body.
If you're having difficulties securing a job or getting on site without the specialist CSCS card, we can register you for the relevant NVQ qualification within 1 work day, which will enable you to apply for the Experienced Worker (Red) CSCS card so that you can gain access to the site and commence your work as soon as possible. To learn more about the Experienced Worker card, please follow the link below.
* to apply for a temporary CSCS card, you must have a valid H&S test, passed within the last two years
(included)
No Homework
Free up your time for more important things in your life! This package might save you days or even weeks of evening work filling out the paperwork. During the assessment, your assessor will dedicate additional time for professional discussions about your work where you will answer clear and simple questions tailored to your industry and job role. After all, this feels like a natural conversation about your work. With this option, your assessor will do significant legwork for you - we will then use your verbal responses to fill out all the answers in the paperwork on your behalf.
* the professional discussions (interviews) are usually audio or video recorded
(+ £400)
Accelerate
While our standard Fast Track assessments are designed to be completed within 4 weeks, the Accelerate package is for individuals who require an extra level of push and support to ensure they stay on track and complete their assessments with greater focus and determination. The assessor's role becomes similar to that of a personal trainer in the gym, offering the push and accountability necessary to maintain the pace of your assessment progress. When procrastination creeps in, expect a friendly phone call from your assessor who will help you get back on your progress track. In addition, our experience shows that assessments including this package naturally receive somewhat of a priority status as your name becomes shortlisted in the list of active learners.
* this package is not available to individuals suffering from any form of mental health conditions

Professional Consulting
Often, construction managers even with long-term experience have gaps in knowledge or lack some resources and evidence required for passing specific assessment units and criteria. That's exactly why we've created this service. Your consultant's role is to help you fill those gaps, offering direct guidance that draws on years of industry experience. Receive professional guidance and assistance in finding the right resources and implementing best practices, management procedures, and industry standards in your current role, which will not only improve your project standards and your company's professional image but also help in implementing the latest practices, enhancing compliance, driving growth, and securing more competitive contracts. Ultimately, implementing new systems and policies will produce the necessary evidence required for meeting the assessment criteria, which will achieve all goals at once.
* this package is NOT designed for novices who have not had prior experience in the industry
