Course Introduction

The Diploma in Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) is designed to develop professional knowledge and practical competencies in environmental management, occupational health and safety, workplace risk assessment, environmental compliance, pollution prevention, and sustainable industrial operations.

The course focuses on developing competent EHS professionals who can identify environmental aspects and occupational hazards, assess environmental and workplace risks, implement effective control measures, conduct EHS inspections and audits, manage environmental compliance, and support the implementation of integrated environmental and occupational health and safety management systems.

Participants will learn how to conduct environmental aspect and impact assessments, workplace hazard identification and risk assessment, environmental monitoring, waste management, pollution prevention, occupational health risk assessment, emergency preparedness, incident investigation, EHS auditing, and corrective action management.

The course also covers environmental legislation, industrial waste management, wastewater treatment, air pollution control, chemical management, industrial hygiene, fire safety, machine safety, electrical safety, ergonomics, contractor safety, and occupational health and safety management.

With particular emphasis on Bangladesh's industrial, commercial, RMG, textile, manufacturing, pharmaceutical, and institutional environments, participants will gain practical knowledge of applicable environmental and occupational health and safety requirements, Bangladesh Environment Conservation Act, 1995 (as amended), Environment Conservation Rules, 2023, Bangladesh Labour Act, 2006 (as amended), Bangladesh Labour Rules, 2015 (as amended), and relevant environmental and workplace safety requirements.

The course will also introduce relevant international standards and frameworks, including ISO 14001 Environmental Management Systems, ISO 45001 Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems, ISO 19011 Guidelines for Auditing Management Systems, ILO occupational safety and health principles, and relevant NFPA standards.

Through practical exercises, environmental risk assessment, workplace safety inspections, environmental monitoring demonstrations, EHS audit simulations, incident investigation, pollution prevention case studies, assignments, and integrated management system exercises, participants will develop the skills required to prevent environmental pollution, reduce occupational risks, improve compliance, protect workers, and strengthen organizational EHS performance.
