E-learning VCA VOL English

BACKGROUND

Under the Dutch Working Conditions Act, employers and employees are obliged in the working environment to pay close attention to health, safety and the environment. Employers need to offer their employees and managers the proper safety training so they are able to work healthily and safely.

Managers play an important role in setting up, implementing and enforcing safety policy. It's essential that managers ‘set a good example’, which requires that they have sufficient knowledge.

TARGET GROUP

• Operational managers working on site in industry, civil engineering (GWW sector) and construction and demolition companies.
• Operational managers of railway workers, removals, mechanics and fitters.
• Non-certified companies also often use the VCA training courses or parts of them to effectively train their employees within the framework of the Dutch Working Conditions Obligations.

WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT?

• An online training package that trainees use to independently complete the course.
• Follow a safety training course in your own time and pace. Experience shows that students then pick up the study material faster. This also avoids complete groups of employees being away from the work floor at the same time.
• A clear insight into the theoretical material through familiar practical examples. We use photo and video material.
• The VCA VOL safety training course teaches you how to improve the safety awareness and work attitude of your employees.
• During this course, all subjects that apply to managers will be discussed.
• The training is accompanied by an exam at an independent examination body. When a candidate passes the exam, he/she receives the nationally recognized VCA VOL personal certificate. This is valid for a period of ten years.
