Level 6+7 Diploma Bundle in Occupational Health and Safety

2 levels (L6+7) · Occupational Health and Safety · From GBP 1,500
The Level 6 and 7 Occupational Health and Safety Diploma Bundle operates at the senior and postgraduate tier of the Regulated Qualifications Framework. Level 6 is the undergraduate equivalent; Level 7 is the postgraduate equivalent — the level at which MBA programmes, executive development, and director appointments are positioned. This bundle is for experienced professionals targeting the senior end of their field, not those starting out in it.
About this Occupational Health and Safety combined pathway
Level 6 covers OHS management at degree level: occupational health and safety management systems (ISO 45001 context), workplace risk assessment and control at an organisational level, occupational health surveillance and health promotion programmes, legal and regulatory compliance in OHS including enforcement and improvement notices, incident investigation and root cause analysis methodology, contractor and supply chain safety management, safety culture development and behavioural safety, and the governance and reporting responsibilities expected of senior health and safety managers and heads of safety in large or regulated organisations. Level 7 advances to the strategic and executive layer: OHS strategy development and integration with corporate governance, board-level risk and safety reporting, leading organisational-wide safety culture transformation, occupational health and wellbeing strategy at enterprise level, policy development and liaison with regulators and enforcement bodies, international and multi-site OHS governance, management system auditing at senior level, and the directorial and advisory responsibilities of Group Safety Directors, Chief Safety Officers, and executive-level OHS consultants operating across complex organisations and sectors. Together the two levels complete the qualification arc from senior OHS manager to executive safety leader.

Who this package is for
This bundle is for senior and director-level professionals in Occupational Health and Safety who want a postgraduate-equivalent qualification. It is typically taken by people already in or targeting Health and Safety Manager or QHSE Director roles, by experienced professionals who want Level 7 as a basis for MBA or doctoral study, and by those operating at a strategic or advisory level who want a formal qualification that reflects the seniority of the work they do — not a qualification they are studying toward.
How the combined pathway works
Level 6 is studied first, covering degree-level OHS management systems, legal compliance, incident investigation, contractor safety, and safety culture at organisational scale. Level 7 builds on this with OHS strategy, board-level governance, enterprise health and wellbeing, international multi-site safety management, and executive safety leadership. Both levels are assessed through portfolio-based assignments submitted online; there are no examinations.
Why combine Level 6+7 in Occupational Health and Safety?
Group safety director and executive OHS leadership roles require the combination of degree-level safety management competence and strategic governance capability that Levels 6 and 7 together provide. Taking both as a combined programme avoids a separate re-enrolment at Level 7, produces a coherent degree-to-executive qualification record, and is more cost-effective than two individually-priced enrolments.
Study online while you work
Portfolio assignments at both levels draw from the learner's actual OHS environment. Level 6 work uses management system audits, risk registers, incident investigation reports, and regulatory compliance reviews. Level 7 assignments are strategic in scope: OHS strategy documents, board safety reports, enterprise wellbeing frameworks, and executive safety governance evaluations — built from evidence in the learner's own organisation or from structured senior management case studies. There are no fixed class times or examinations.
