Mandatory Health and Safety Training in Polish

A company with 10 employees or more, must select a health and safety representative and appoint a supervisor who takes care of the work environment. Within three months after the election/appointment, they must undergo a health and safety training.
This training can only be offered by certified providers such as ArbejdsmiljøGruppen. On construction sites, there must be a health and safety group (occupational safety and health representative and a supervisor) if a company is employing five employees or more, and the work lasts 14 days or more.

What is the time frame for the course

The mandatory safety training lasts three days or the equivalent of 22 hours. Included in the 22 hours are shorter breaks. The time used to complete the practical assignment comes in addition to the 22 hours devoted to training.
