Free skills gap assessment
Health, safety and environment (HSE) professionals spot hazards at work, run inspections and audits, investigate incidents to stop them happening again, train staff and make sure the site follows safety and environmental law. They work in places such as construction, manufacturing, energy, logistics and labs.
It suits practical people who like being out on site, notice details and are confident speaking up. Certifications matter in this field, and many people come in from trades, operations or science backgrounds.
First roles are safety coordinator or EHS coordinator. From there people move to HSE specialist and HSE manager, responsible for a whole site or region.

A guide, not a pass mark. Your Skills Gap Assessment shows how ready you are for each level and what to work on.
You answer yes or no to short statements about what you have actually done. Each statement belongs to one of 9 skill areas, and each area is weighted by how often employers ask for it, so the score reflects what jobs need.
