Health & Safety Qualifications
Regulated health and safety qualifications for employers, contractors and individuals working in environments where safety, compliance and risk management matter. A clear pathway from entry-level awareness to supervisory competence.
A regulated safety pathway
Britannia Elite delivers a suite of regulated Health & Safety qualifications for both new entrants and experienced staff, with clear progression from basic awareness through to supervisory-level competence. They support employers, contractors and individuals across any sector where safe working, compliance and risk management are essential.
All qualifications on this page are awarded by QNUK (Qualifications Network UK), an awarding organisation regulated by Ofqual, and sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF). Most QNUK qualifications recommend a minimum of Level 1 literacy and numeracy, or equivalent, as a starting point.
