The Institution of Occupational Safety & Health (IOSH) Food and Drink Group is piloting a shadowing scheme, to give graduates the opportunity of at least three months experience with a company in the food and drinks industry.
By offering crucial hands-on experience of the world of health and safety work, the aim of the scheme is to give those on a placement a greater chance of getting onto the employment ladder.
Committee members from IOSH’s Food and Drink Group are health and safety managers for some of the UK’s biggest food and drink manufacturers.
They have pledged places for job-hunting IOSH graduate members with companies in the produce industry such as The Shropshire Group.
