However, according to the provisions of the Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) on Work Safety and the Law on Prevention and Control of Occupational Diseases, an enterprise shall establish a health monitoring system and an occupational health management system, and shall designate a special person to be responsible for occupational health management. In order to ensure the effectiveness of occupational health management in enterprises, employers tend to recruit or promote employees with relevant certificates as occupational health administrators.
Therefore, although the certificate of occupational health administrator is not required by law, it can enhance the competitiveness of employees in the workplace and help ensure the implementation of the occupational health management system within the enterprise.
