Need professional advice?
Please note that in line with IOSH's agreement with the consortium
running OSHCR, the IOSH Register of Consultants is now closed.
All consultants on our Register of Consultants have been contacted
regarding the withdrawal and advised to register with OSHCR.
The new Occupational Safety and Health Consultants'
Register (OSHCR) has been launched with over 2,400 highly
qualified professionals signed up. The register will
enable consultants to offer their expertise to those
who need advice on managing their general health and safety
risks.
Who is on the register?
The register is voluntary and open to professionals who
advise on general health and safety management. It's only open to
consultants who have met certain standards within their
professional bodies and commit to:
• Demonstrating adequate continuing professional development
• Abiding by their professional body’s code of conduct
• Providing sensible and proportionate advice
• Having professional indemnity insurance or equivalent to cover
the nature of their duties
Who can use the register?
Anyone looking for professional help can freely access the
OSHCR website to search for consultants
who may be suitable to help with their specific needs. The
filter facility allows users to search by county, industry or
topic.
If you would like more information about working with
consultants IOSH has produced a booklet called Getting help
with health and safety (PDF 207 KB) which offers practical
guidance on working with a consultant.
