It can be really tricky to get a foot in the door in the industry but I'd advise joining an institute like the Institute of Fire Safety Managers (IFSM). You could go for the Institute of Fire Engineers (IFE) but they have a bit of an ex-firefighter bias. The IFSM offers some mentoring opportunities where you can go along with experienced fire risk assessors and shadow then for the day which can really help your experience. I'd also recommend just contacting some consultancy firms using their online forms with a copy of your CV and just explain that you're looking for a trainee-level position. Some firms you could look at are: Tetra Consultaning EDP UK EEUK Ltd Hydrock (Now Stantec) Momentum Health & Safety Consultants Zeta Services These are all firms where I know people who work there and they're all nice people and seem happy with these places. I also work at one of them lol. The only place I'd advise you to avoid like the bloody plague is Ark Workplace Risk. They pay well but they're not very nice people and the workload is insane! Another place you could try is Quidvis Risk. They're not a bad bunch of people but they do all their assessments on an app which is not really conducive to a good risk assessment as it's all drop-down and pre-written answers. A good place for entry level and getting used to the process of simple risk assessments but definitely not a good place to develop as a competent risk assessor. I hope that's of some use mate, and good luck!

For sure he and his work is amazing

We agree she is amazing 👏

Hi thank you for the feedback! We have 2 more episodes coming out today - including our chat with Juliana Bley :) - Cheers!

Thanks for the feedback, really appreciate it. Any chance to talk about Star Wars, don't quite know where I was going with it thought haha!

@@RebrandingSafety I think that some people genuinely don't believe that there are lessons to be learnt from fables or fiction or even history for that matter. When I have facilitated training on investigations, I use Space event (Apollo1, Challenger, the Columbia disasters along with Apollo 13 along with the Kobioshi Maru). And I did it because of a personal passion and I saw those were more about the people and situations then the scope or location. At first when I started talking about this with a group of miners I was looked at as some weird Sci- Fi Nerd, and I was generally worried about receiving a wedgie. But, as time goes on it was those scenarios that started to help me build some trust with folks and forced them (at least I hope) to think more along the lines that Dekker talks about in towards a Just Safety Culture. One where we don't always blame the dead guy, we learn from the past and work towards a well earned bigger bonus. Anyways, keep up the good work I am quite enjoying your channel.

No problem glad it's helped! Thank you for the comment it means a lot!

🤣🤣🤣

To be honest I have seen or been on any that I have found to be good. I like what I seen on social media from a company called PCR Global but not been on a course from them. Maybe try them out.

What a lush comment!! That's made our day thank you!! 😊

That's awesome thank you!

Hi Mate! Glad the video helped!! We are looking into tutorial videos mate!! Watch this space

@@RebrandingSafety thank you that is great!!. I had an interview on cdm but my knowledge was weak so didn’t get it. If there is a future course I’d be grateful 🙂

Hmmm that's a good question. Off the top of my head I would say just go out there and get stuck in getting experience solving problems. Sorry that's annoying answer lol.

Whilst I would say that I personally am not a fan because at some point HR would have to sack someone, and that's not very helpful to where safety needs to be. I have also seen HR and safety work well together in a joint department, so I suppose that it's more about the attitude and culture of the team/person/business

Hi Mate, Yeah still active we have just struggled to get back to consistently uploading videos since starting the consultancy!

@@RebrandingSafety Good to hear. I start my Nebosh next week so looking forward ti studying it and seeing if Health and Saftey is for me. What's your best tips for someone looking to get their first job in the industry with no experience? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Wow! Thank you for commenting that! I am chuffed the video provided value!!

Nice!

Ideally it should be a collaborative thing that you both put together. But yes they could reject it in reality if there is something they are uncomfortable with.

Wow thank you!

Thanks so much for your feedback charliemopic470! 😊 And thank you for pointing out our spelling mistake! It's so greatly appreciated. Having published 100's of videos over the last 5 years it's inevitable that there will be mistakes along the line, we are human after all!!! 🥰🥰 Regarding the swearing, we absolutely love it! And we always make sure that any video we make has maximum profanity. Doesn't swearing just feel great?! It's all about the context I suppose 💁‍♂️ The next steps to growing our channel will be to watch all of your content for much needed inspiration. Thank you again, and we hope you have a fabulous day! 😘

@@RebrandingSafety 😂

@@RebrandingSafety Swearing is extremely unprofessional. You aren't a child youtuber, you portray a professional company but act like a teenager. Take the advice, stop swearing in your videos.

Nope 😁

Yes designer....did I say director?! My bad!

Thanks Luigi!! 😁

Ha! Love it!! It totally is still alive! Keep doing what you are doing and we will change it!

No problem! Glad you got value out of the content 👌

Thanks 😁

No age limit at all! The more the merrier! I think both of those things will help you for sure.

That's awesome. How do you use it?

Thanks for following! Hope you like the content 👍

@@RebrandingSafety yes I very much do like your content, I am pursuing a degree in OSH.😌

We are not hiring currently

@@RebrandingSafety just asking.. Average salary?

Thanks for your comment. I am inclined to disagree whilst there is a lot of stupid shit done in the name of safety our legislation is actually quite good in my opinion compared to others. (Even though not perfect) There is a lot of flexibility and even in our civil law the "ordinary reasonable person" test is literally a test for the so called common sense. So the law actually encourages common sense.

Hi Waheed, thanks for your message. We don't currently have any opportunities, but keep an eye out on the channel, we post videos when we have vacancies come up. Thanks.

@@RebrandingSafety sir , Thanks for reply me . In which country you working ?.

Hi! Link is below to the shop 👍 riskfluentltd.com/shop/

Congrats on the new role!! 👏 Top tips....argh that's huge question! To be honest my top tip would be yes learn the core legislation it will help but when uou get started my top tip would be spend as much time as you can learning how work is done in the real world. The more you knkw about the real world of work The better you can apply the legislation in a resonable and practical way.

Thanks for your reply!

Also AI episode... keen

AI episode needs to happen for sure! We have been using Opus clips for the last few months. We love it! Not tried Riverside though.

Hey Eddy, on our Website www.riskfluentltd.com

Aww thanks!! We have debated add training and qualifications to Risk Fluent Services but if we did it wouldn't be for a while!

A lot is changing in the fire risk assessment space but the building doesn't need a certificate it needs a fire risk assessment recorded in writing. Hope that makes sense.

Totally, Peter and I are actually discussing that exact topic in depth in the next podcast episode

Thanks for commenting, that means a lot to us!! 😍😁🙏

Yeah for sure!! I am a safety professional and I always forget COSHH stuff! The skills fade is real! 🤣

Great example. The difference between spraying and rolling will be significantly different alone!
