The Ultimate Guide to SHEQ Jobs in South Africa

 

Safety, health, environment, and quality (SHEQ) management is a technical field that applies to a number of different industries to ensure compliance and continuous improvement of these aspects, all of which have an effect on the organisation.

This is the ultimate guide to SHEQ management jobs in South Africa.

 

What does SHEQ in South Africa entail?

The International Standards Organization (ISO) has created a number of standards to aid businesses in implementing and integrating many critical management systems that target certain aspects of enterprise management, including SHEQ management. While each set of guidelines focuses on a different issue, they can complement one another to guarantee the highest levels of worker safety, environmental management, and quality possible.

Other Useful Career Guides:
What career opportunities are there for SHEQ jobs in South Africa?

Jobs such as safety engineer, fire protection engineer, safety coordinator, environmental health and safety professional, and industrial hygienist are common within this field.

How to get a SHEQ job in South Africa?

Skills, qualifications, and experience depend on the type of organisation and industry you wish to work in. Safety officers are required to have varying levels of education and experience depending on the company and sector. It is best to contact the relevant industry association and major employers in the field you're interested in to find out what courses are recommended and required for entry-level and higher positions in  this field.

How to become a SHEQ practitioner?

NOSA offers a variety of health and safety training, including SAMTRAC, one of the industry's most recognized qualifications.

A SAMTRAC introduction qualification is where you'll learn the basics of HSE legislation and compliance, as well as how to do hazard identification inspections and risk assessments.

With SAMTRAC advanced, NOSA's flagship health and safety qualification, you'll get high-level technical knowledge and an in-depth understanding of HSE-related ideas, procedures, and practices. You'll receive training in risk management and HSE requirements to make strategic decisions and update health and safety policies.

Pros and cons of being a SHEQ practitioner

As long as there are workers, SHEQ professionals will be needed. South Africa lacks experts in this field. A 2021 report by the Department of Employment and Labour shows troubling compliance levels in occupational health and safety across various sectors.

Depending on where you are in your career, what you do, and how long you've been doing it, you can make a good salary. Several entry-level to mid-level health and safety occupations don't require a bachelor's degree.

On the downside SHEQ work can be hard and even dangerous sometimes. They have to be strict and not give second chances. They do safety audits and inspections to make sure that managers and workers are following the right safety procedures. It can be hard for OHS officers to get staff to accept and follow new safety rules. This is a common problem in the business.

Frequently asked questions

Is SHEQ a good career?

Yes. Health and safety in South Africa offers many ways to be successful and a long-term career path that builds on professional skills already learned.

Are SHEQ  in demand?

In order to ensure quality, safety, and efficiency, more companies are getting ISO-certified. Health and safety management systems based on ISO 45001:2018 are in demand.

How much does a SHEQ practitioner earn?

SHEQ salaries average R 390 000 per year or R 200 per hour in South Africa. Entry-level jobs pay R 217 429 per year, while most experienced workers get R 5 400 000.
