Practical training for occupational health and safety specialists - Kursuok.lt

UAB ‘SDG’, the leading provider of occupational health and safety services in Lithuania, invites you to attend practical training sessions designed for occupational health and safety specialists.

Hundreds of SDG staff members encounter a wide range of situations on a daily basis that are part of an occupational health and safety specialist’s routine: from standard induction training to the investigation of fatal accidents. We have summarised their collective experience and would like to share it with our training participants.

In this training course, we will discuss the most important and most common aspects of an Occupational Health and Safety Specialist’s work. We will explain and demonstrate, using practical examples, how to assess risks properly, implement preventive measures, complete various occupational safety-related documents, and what steps to take to ensure that occupational safety becomes a priority not only for the OSH specialist, but also for the company’s management and every employee. Join our training course and, by improving your skills with us, help create an even safer and healthier working environment for your company!
