NEBOSH has made its health and safety at work qualification available in Arabic and Russian.
The move will make the qualification accessible to an additional 370 million people who speak either language. NEBOSH chief executive Teresa Budworth revealed that the expansion is part of the firm’s plans to offer safety training courses across the world.
She said: “It’s NEBOSH’s vision to preserve and improve health, safety and the environment in workplaces worldwide. Although many people speak English throughout the world, we cannot achieve this vision without making our courses and qualifications available in other languages.€ﾨ €ﾨ“For the health and safety at work qualification we’ve chosen Arabic and Russian, as these languages fit well with the international markets being forged by several of our course providers.€ﾨ €ﾨ“We’re not stopping at Arabic and Russian, of course. Mandarin Chinese is spoken by almost 86 million people, around 13 per cent of the world’s population, so this qualification will soon be available in this language also.”
