Target Audience<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This training is intended for Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) Specialists, OSH Representatives, and members of Occupational Safety and Health Committees. It is also suitable for middle managers and employers who perform the duties of an OSH Specialist within their organisation, as well as anyone interested in occupational safety and health and creating a safe and healthy working environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Training Objective<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The organisation of occupational safety and health (OSH) in Estonia is governed by the Occupational Health and Safety Act<\/strong> (revised version effective from 15 May 2024<\/strong>). The Act requires employers to ensure that elected Occupational Safety and Health Representatives and appointed members of the Occupational Safety and Health Committee complete the required OSH training within two months<\/strong> of their appointment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our training programme has been developed in accordance with the requirements for initial and continuing OSH training established by Regulation No. 50 of the Estonian Ministry of Social Affairs<\/strong>, issued on 22 November 2018<\/strong>, “Procedure for the Training and Refresher Training of Occupational Safety and Health Representatives, Occupational Safety and Health Committee Members, and First Aid Providers in Continuing Education Institutions.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The course also provides an excellent foundation for newly appointed Occupational Safety and Health Specialists who require initial training to perform their role effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
