Which Occupational safety card training???

Occupational safety card training was created about 20 years ago. Training system is managed by Center of Occupational safety and Occupational safety card (Työturvallisuuskortti) is under their trademark. Purpose of the training is to provide a standardized safety training concept. Training will provide good basic knowledge of Occupational safety and after providing a valid training Certificate then receiving companies can focus on site specific matters at site induction and rely on the knowledge that you have good basic information on safety and know about Occupational safety matters in general. Occupational safety card training is largely recognized and required by many companies as part of their training competence requirement.

Occupational safety card training duration is standardized so this eLearning part will take 3 hours and 30 minutes with lessons and exercises. Each chapter has an estimated reading and performance time and is equipped with a timer. Refreshing the browser will start the counter from the beginning, so keep that in mind please.

We’ve had the pleasure to participate in this way with so many interesting projects pretty much from all industrial sectors in Finland and also in many other countries as well. We’ve met people from all over the world and it has been great to exchange thoughts and ideas. 

Text is written in informal way and resembles the style we use in our class room trainings because in my opinion bone dry text is not only very exhausting to read but also exhausting to write. Sorry about that to all English- and academic writing teachers.  

Purpose of the training is help people to get acquainted with Finnish safety regulations, special charasteristics,  risk evaluation,  safe working methods and to improve cooperation in shared workplaces.
