Acknowledgements
Throughout the book, defi nitions used by the relevant legislation, the HM Government Guides, British Standards, the 
Health and Safety Commission, the Health and Safety Executive and advice published in Approved Codes of Practice 
or various Health and Safety Commission/Executive publications have been utilised.
At the end of each chapter, there are some example examination questions, some of which have been taken from 
recent NEBOSH Fire Safety & Risk Management Certifi cate papers and a number of which have been produced by 
the authors as examples of possible questions covering the topic discussed. Some of the questions may include 
topics which are covered in more than one chapter. The answers to these questions are to be found within the preced-
ing chapter of the book. NEBOSH publishes an examiners’ report after each public examination which gives further 
information on each question. Most accredited NEBOSH training centres will have copies of these reports and further 
copies may be purchased directly from NEBOSH although as this is a relatively new course previous questions are 
currently limited. The authors would like to thank NEBOSH for giving them permission to use these questions.
The authors extend their gratitude for the assistance in completing their book to all the staff of Salvus Consulting. 
In particular to Kim and Anne who provided support throughout the project. Their assistance with gathering information 
and permissions for the use of the included photographs and fi gures was a signifi cant contribution to the quality of the 
book.
We would also like to extend heartfelt thanks to Anne Black for the sterling work that she undertook in assisting in 
the production of Chapter 15 – The Summary of Key Legal Requirements.
