It's great to see new amendments introduced by the Tamil Nadu government to the existing Tamil Nadu Safety Officer Rules, 2005.
Anybody who has studied a safety course from an institute/college recognized by AICTE/UGC/DGFASLI. There were horrible rules before for the appointment of safety officers, which ensured only students from certain money-looting colleges were eligible to be appointed as safety officers, regardless of their working experience and knowledge compared to others.
Even if a native of Tamil Nadu had completed an MTech in Industrial Safety from NIT, Durgapur, or from UPES, or a Post Diploma from other approved institutes, they were still barred from joining as a safety officer in Tamil Nadu under that existing law clause. Because of this, the people of Tamil Nadu suffered a lot. It makes sense now. At least this will stop the demand from money-looting colleges.

As per the Factories Act, a candidate must have a ME in Industrial Safety Engineering from a GO-approved institution under the Ministry of Labor and Employment. Additionally, a PG Diploma in Industrial Safety from RLI in Chennai or CLI in Mumbai is also required. These criteria will be considered in industries for the recruitment of Safety Officers.
