New health and well-being at work qualification

Premier Partnership has been invited by NEBOSH to pilot their new National Certificate in Health and Well-being at Work course.

Dame Carol Blacks report “Working For A Healthier Tomorrow”  stated “Research specially commissioned for this review found considerable evidence that health and well-being programmes produced economic benefits across all sectors and all sizes of business: in other words, that good health is good business”.

The new course is suitable for General Managers, Supervisors, HR Managers, and Safety Professionals, who have responsibility for, or involvement in, the health and well-being of employees as part of their day-to day duties.
