Perfect study aid when on the go! Recommend this product for those studying or simply want to refresh themselves on points it covers. Great product.

This is a useful little book for anyone grappling with the NEBOSH General Certificate examination. It condenses the main points of the syllabus into handy bullet point chunks and is small enough to fit in a pocket/ briefcase for use in spare moments. My one criticism is that it would have benefitted from a better index to help accessing specific points but I suspect it was a trade off between size/length and contents.

I found this really helpful when doin the NEBOSH Gen Cert. The book used in the course is huge plus course notes means there’s a massive amount of reading to do. This covers the main points if u don’t have time to go through the main book chapter and verse, need a bit of a refresher and good for revision.

This book is incredibly thorough, well-presented and well laid out. It conatins good summarisations of all the major points covered by NEBOSH’s own learning resource in a way that is easy to access. It is a brilliant handy size – not too big but not too small either so you can still see the writing easily. It also stood up to hours of page flicking and spine breaking as I trawled trhough it for several weeks. Absolutely worth the price.
If I could improve it, I would include an index for the moments you are flicking between the pages looking for linked elements covered in different places.
I came out my resit exam feeling much more positive than I did before I used this guide so I rate this book very highly indeed.

Its Good but if you want to use it for revision or reference get the paper version and not forthe Kindle. The book would have got five stars but I bought it on Kindle and it makes it difficlt to browes and reference individual items.
The information is all there and is surely worthwhile, but get the old fashioned version

I bought this in both physical and e-book formats to help me revise for the NEBOSH exam, both editions are well laid out, clearly written and easy to use. The information is broken down into bite sized chunks and its sorted into chapters like First Aid, it all makes sense, I suppose the proof of the pudding is whether or not I pass the exam. I will report back, but I do recommend the book, I feel like it a lot easier to tackle than the big textbook, small enough to fir in a pocket as well.
by Martin
this book is ideal for anyone taking on the NEBOSH course, this give you brief points about each topic, with helpful learning points along the way. it is pocket size as well which is always handy when wanting to save time carrying around the large full text book. this this can also be used in the field as a hand refresher to anyone in the health and safety career as it can provide little points for refreshing knowledge and helping sae time in going to a computer to look up information.

I had to take an HS at work exam and found this book gave me all the information I needed and no padding. I past the exam so can only say great things about this book.
Seriously this book does open your eyes to the value of being HS conscious rather than critical as we often are in the workplace. I would recommend this book to students and those taking HS exams as it is very good and gives a really sound grounding in the knowledge needed.
