Training Safety for operational managers

Within the framework of the Health and Safety at Work, (HSW) -legislation employers and employees are obliged to pay attention to safety, health and the environment during work. Employers should offer their employees and management the proper safety training to ensure healthy and safe working conditions. Two training courses have been developed within the framework of safety at work, based on the VCA attainment levels for 2004: a basic contractor safety training course (VCA-Basic) and a contractor safety training for operative management (VCA-VOL).

Effective training


Management plays an important role in drawing up, implementing and enforcing safety policy. ‘Practice is what you preach’, but then management must have sufficient knowledge at its disposal. The Training Safety for operational managers is meant for operative management working on location in manufacturing, earth moving, civil engineering, building and demolition companies. Non-certified companies also use (part of) the safety training courses frequently to train their employees effectively within the framework of their HSW-obligations.

Offering multimedia training
