Question:
I have been working in the civil engineers dept of a
construction company for the last 5 years and have decided now i want
to get myself a career, im tempted to go into Health and Safety, what
is your opinion of this is there a demand or is the market flooded
with H&S people, what type of £ are H&S people earning.
My alternative is to work with a plumber and learn that trade but he
will not let me go to college but said he will purchase all relevant
books etc etc.
Decisions, Decisions, please advise
Answer:
There is a shortage of Building Control Surveyors (AFAIK it's the same
for most kinds of Building Surveyors), and I heard a report that the
Seller's Packs for house sales coming in in 2005 will mean a need for
tens of thousands of extra Valuation Surveyors.

employment law (module from legal executive) data protection
course, etc etc,
no qualification in construction as such but considering either nebosh
construction or nvq 3 in health and safety
"Career: To travel wildly and out of control downhill to eventual
disaster" Also, "to be conned into thinking that by gaining expereince
in one narrow field of expertise, you will have a secure job for life,
professional status, and a pension."
