Assessment
This qualification is competence-based; candidates must demonstrate the level of competence described in the units. Assessment is the process of measuring a candidate's skill, knowledge and understanding against the standards set in the qualification. The assignment questions will require learners to draw on real organisations to illustrate their answers. Mature learners will ideally be able to draw on their personal work experience too. The assessment type is submitting completed modules to the assessor; the assessment will not determine a pass or fail. Furthermore, feedback from the assessor will be received by the candidates to progress onto the next assignment.

- Evaluate the extent to which the processes of an occupational health and safety management system links to any ISO issues
- Analyse any gaps to be bridged to satisfy the requirements of an ISO occupational health and safety management system
- Evaluate the challenges faced by an organisation while implementing an ISO complaint
- Evaluate the importance of understanding the organisation and its context whilst framing occupational health and management systems
- Analyse the way external and internal issues have had an impact on the way an organisation manages its occupational health and safety systems
- Assess the way in which the activities of sub-contractors and third parties might have a negative impact on an organisation's health and safety
- Differentiate between the various recognised occupational health and safety standards
- Ensure the alignment of the health and safety management system with an organisation's strategic goals, and that it meets legal, regulatory and compliance requirements
