<description>There is currently no official accreditation scheme for Health and Safety Consultants, which means that anyone can set themselves up as a health and safety consultant without any qualification or test of their competence.

The Safety Management Bureau supports the Chartered Institute of Environmental Health&#39;s (CIEH) view that a register is established that guarantees that businesses get advice from competent consultants that is accurate and proportionate.  </description>
