Training of employees performing particularly dangerous work
We invite you to take advantage of our training offer Health and Safety in ODK ERGON! We would like to remind you that company managers and employees are obliged to be aware of the applicable regulations for carrying out particularly hazardous work. This knowledge can only be acquired by attending an appropriate course. We offer comprehensive and professional periodic training in occupational health and safety.
What are the most dangerous jobs?
According to occupational health and safety regulations, particularly hazardous work is work whose performance increases the risk of accidents due to its nature, the hazardous materials used or the place where it is performed. Particularly hazardous means:
- construction, demolition, renovation and assembly works carried out without stopping the operation of the workplace or its part;
- work in tanks, ducts, inside technical equipment and other dangerous confined spaces, as well as work with hazardous materials and work at height;
- work recognised as particularly hazardous by other health and safety legislation or by instructions for the operation of equipment and installations, and other work with increased hazards or performed under difficult conditions, recognised as particularly hazardous by the employer.
Purpose of the training
According to the Labour Code, employers are obliged to refer their employees to periodic training on occupational health and safety. The aim of the training we offer is to provide participants with the knowledge of creating safe and hygienic working conditions in accordance with current legislation and legal acts.
