Training - OSH

The employer is obliged to provide employees with training on legal and other regulations to ensure occupational safety and health, which complement their professional prerequisites and requirements for the performance of workwhich are relevant to the work they perform and relate to the risks they may encounterthe worker comes into contact with at the workplace where the work is carried out, and to require and monitor compliance with them on an ongoing basis.

No law specifies how often OSH training should be repeated. It merely states that, where the nature and severity of the potential risk so requires, it must be repeated at regulartimes and dates, but these are not specified anywhere, so the frequency is at the discretion and responsibility of the employer. Training should therefore be repeated as often as is appropriate to the nature of the work and the risks involved. The specific timing of periodic training should be set out in an internal company regulation or directive in which should specify, inter alia, what the training consists of, how often it is to be carried out and in what form. Typically, the period of recurrence is once every 2 to 3 years. A thematic plan and timetable is drawn up and adapted to the nature of the job.

TRAINING MUST BE CARRIED OUT:
When the employee starts work - initial training
When a change of job classification or change of type of work
When a new technology is introduced or when there is a change in production, working and technological procedures
Other circumstances that may have a direct impact on occupational safety
Regular periodic training
