Health & Safety Business School (HSBS) is a new project we have developed by OSHversity TDC with the sole aim of looking at the business side of Occupational Safety and Health and making it profitable to practitioners. The world is short of trained OSH professionals while most of the trained ones are also retiring. The whole aim of the HSBS project is to train OSH experts from the point of practitioners to Independent OSH Consultants.

We also need the knowledge and experiences of the fast retiring OSH Experts in supporting workplace health and safety but this will hardly be achieved if we do not have OSH experts that are trained on how to do personal consulting in the field of OSH. The OSH business landscape is so virgin and this needs to be adequately explored.

The HSBS Proposition

The HSBS been designed as an Eight-Week (8) virtual training and grooming sessions directed at commercial models within the OSH practice with emphasis on OSH Consulting. Each week has two hours tutorial session with a subject expert on the topic scheduled for each week, participants are left with study links and in some cases, even home work.

The entire program has 7 topics that will be covered in 7 weeks and the final week has been designed for the entire program review, term paper and wrap up. Submission of individual term paper qualifies participants for certificate issuance, these must be submitted two weeks after the program’s wrap up.

We have put together an impressive tutorial board made up of experts drawn from different part of the world, these group of people have volunteered their time to help groom participants.

We have all been taught clearly on the practice of Health and Safety and this has helped quite a number of us to perform in our various employment but we do not have conversations on Independent OSH Consulting which should be a window for senior experienced OSH professionals and retirees to still make contribution towards workplace health and safety. This is the focus of HSBS, we need to train and groom OSH Practitioners into Independent OSH Consulting and above all, teaching them the skills needed for setting up and managing OSH Consulting Organisations. Opportunities abounds within the economics of OSH but these have not been duly explored, while we feel we have limited number of trained OSH experts globally, a high number of them retire daily and it is high time we looked at ways of keeping their expertise in the system while we train younger graduates to fill in those vacuums. The older practitioners who have worked for 20 years and above saturate the market and make growth difficult for their younger colleagues, teaching and showing them the pathway to OSH Consulting will free up space for people to grow and allow aspiring entrants into the field of practice. This will blossom OSH profession, improve workplace health and safety and create a stretch of opportunities we can all benefit from.
