hi,


i'm thinking of register myself for the upcoming fire safety manager (FSM),

my objective is to have a skill and earn part time income if possible.


may i ask if anyone can share with me on the prospective of a FSM.

or i should just go for other better courses such as safety officer?


i roughly google and seems not much good on being a FSM.


thank you

nope, its like a part time job...

 

formally 1 FSM can monitor many buildings but now, 1 building per FSM.

 

my objective is to equip myself with a skill.. least when i grow old.. i still can make a living..

I reckon this is not a full time position. Normally, held by HSE manager, facilities manager, admin manager, training manager or other supporting role manager....

This is still quite honest job title; at least the word 'funeral' is still intact and not replaced by some fanciful names.

 

Just a few examples...

 

Most executives working in offices are not really executives; they have no "hire and fire" power, no decision making power - not even a small matter, everything must refer to manager kind...... To me, they should be more appropriately called "co-ordinators".

 

Then, we have so many account managers doing sales....... with obviously no executive and managerial powers and on their name cards or sign off signatories, they have to put "account manager (sales)" as this obviously create confusion.

Maybe get a WSHO (workplace safety health officer) cert follow by FSM cert.

More worth it :)

 

Some company prefer to engage one person that is able to multitask, i.e. WSHO cum FSM, though FSM can only be registered one per company/factory.

Try Advance Certificate in Workplace Safety & Health (WSH). Advance Cert can only be Safety Supervisor.

 

After conmpleting Advance Certificate, go for Diploma in WSH and become a Safety Oficer. HIgh demand in construction industries.

 

Both the courses offer by NTUC LearningHub and BCA Academy.

Ah neh cert really jialat one..... [grin] . My wife company has one and when I questioned him on some safety issue, he look blurr at me... :huh: . He attended Basic Certificate of WSH and act machiam like Safety officer.

 

The Advance Cert very tough and the part time courses took 8 months to complete and with no multiple choices questions. All had to be hand written and every module, had to submit project papers.... [sweatdrop]

 

I had completed my Advance Cert last year from NTUC LearningHub and regret going cos, now every dammed safety things, I have to look into especially preparing the RA.... [crazy] . Salary no increase but more safety responsibilities .. [knife]
