Megamas Now A Chartered IOSH Centre

Bandar Seri Begawan – Megamas Training Company Sdn Bhd has recently successfully completed the 4", NEBOSH International Certificate course which was held from Dec 5 to 16. Participants comprised personnel from the Ministry of Defence, Shell Sarawak Berhad (Miri), Brunei Shell contractors and from Malaysia and Singapore.

This course offered the successful participants - in addition to an excellent basic knowledge and awareness of all health and safety issues - the opportunity to be acknowledged as Technician JOSH - which is the commencement of a career in health and safety to full Chartered memberships of the Institution of Occupational Health and Safety, (JOSH), namely C.MIOSH.

JOSH has received a high milestone in the recognition of its profession by being accorded with the "Chartered" status. Megamas, in Brunei Darussalam, was the first training provider to conduct this course in the Southeast Asian region. Megamas has also become an JOSH Centre.

Founded in 1945, the Institution of Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH) is committed to promoting protection from workplace hazards at every level, and works to advance the health, safety and welfare of people at work, and those affected by work activities.

According to the General Manager of Megamas, Mr RogerAinsworth, "As membership of JOSH is conditional on regular international independent inspection, it will help us to raise our standard further by identifying areas for development. We are proud that this has all been achieved with a strong Bruneian background as Megamas employs 85 per cent of local staff." -- Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin
