Who can call themselves a safety engineer?
In Deutschland beispielsweise erfordert der Beruf als Sicherheitsingenieur in der Regel ein abgeschlossenes Studium im Bereich der Sicherheitstechnik, der Umwelttechnik oder in einem ähnlichen technischen Studiengang. Zusätzlich könnten praktische Erfahrungen und Weiterbildungen wie die Ausbildung zur Fachkraft für Arbeitssicherheit erforderlich sein, die auch gesetzlich vorgeschrieben sein können, um in bestimmten industriellen Sektoren arbeiten zu dürfen.
In other countries, the job title "safety engineer" is not protected, but means that the person has completed advanced training in the field of engineering, specialising in occupational safety, health protection and/or environmental safety. This typically includes a degree from a university or college with a focus on safety engineering or a related technical field, often supplemented by additional certifications or state-recognised further training in safety management.
