NSQF Level 8. Delivered by IFEM as Industrial Training Partners (IATP) with IUN (International University Nagaland), taught by IFE faculty with two decades of industrial consultancy practice.
The Factories Act, under Section 40B, requires every industrial establishment above a defined size to appoint a qualified Safety Officer. The BOCW Act extends similar requirements to construction sites. The OSH Code is tightening them further.
India has thousands of factories above the threshold. It does not have thousands of qualified safety officers. Plants run with the role vacant, or filled by someone who does not hold the formal qualification an audit will accept.
PGVDISM closes that gap in a year. The programme covers Factories Act compliance, BOCW Act, ISO 45001, hazard identification, risk assessment, permit-to-work systems, incident investigation, and safety audit methodology. Built for graduates who need to move fast, and for working safety supervisors who qualify for RPL admission.
Every module closes with a live case. A real plant. A real compliance question. A real safety gap. Students run the audit steps: evidence collection, non-conformance documentation, corrective action planning, closure report. Drawn from IFE's two-decade consultancy portfolio with Nagpur Municipal Corporation, HSIIDC Panchkula, and industrial clients.
By the end of the year, a PGVDISM graduate has walked through more audit scenarios than most safety supervisors see in three years on the floor.
