A bit about cards

Let’s first talk about the safety card first. We all have noticed that many work places requires from you to own the occupational safety card. This requirement doesn’t come from the law, but companies have decided it to be mandatory, if you want to enter the common work place.

The idea with occupational safety training is that everyone understands how the occupational safety system works and what kind of responsibilities every operator has.  And then of course people have basic skills to plan their work to maximize safety, but that’s not the main point of the course.

In recent years, we have got different occupational safety cards on the market. Those are mostly online courses. They provide good information in a clear form. The problem with them is that the actual card is not accepted by many employers. Only one card works on any work field in Finland and that one is provided by TTK ry.

 

Why our card is accepted everywhere?

Our card is done under TTK Ry supervision and with their guidelines and materials. Every course also includes a webinar kept by a real person, and then there is also the exam.  Every cardholder has got verified training and passed the exam.

 

Why is our training different?

I’m an occupational safety trainer, but it’s not my main profession. I love efficiency, and the best way to improve your productivity is to eliminate dangers at work and reduce risks. Likewise, I’ll bring as many real life examples to the course as I can. We should understand the topic. Not just to pass the exam and get the card.

Very often participants finds this part to be the best. I love to share real work life examples and also to hear peoples’ background. Together we make the day great.

 

You and me after the course

 Now you have passed the test and enjoyed the course itself. If you have any questions after the course, you can always contact me and ask. I’ll help as much as I can. It’s also a way for me to learn something new.

 

Tailored for you

 If you provide a bit of information about your background and targets at work, I can tailor the course. In my opinion, the day has no meaning if it doesn’t fit to your needs.

Why do you need a occupational safety card?

If you want to get access to so-called high risk working environment or any another field co-operating with them, you need to have the occupational safety card. It’s not required by the law but by employers.

There are many safety cards. Which one is the right?

There are several different safety card providers. You should pick the universal one which works on any work place in Finland. That card is provided by TTK ry and our courses are under their wings.

What about the course itself?

The safety card course is a full day activity. There is an interactive webinar (7,5h), and we take a proud to tailor the course as much we can base participants backgrounds. We want that you’ll have a great day, and you’ll reap all the benefits you can. Don’t take our word, but read our reviews.

After the webinar, there is an exam. The exam has 27 questions, and you have to get 23 right. Don’t worry about the exam, it’s my job to prepare you well.

How long it the occupational safety card valid?

The safety card is valid for 5 years, and remember to renew it before it gets old. When you have the valid occupational safety card, you can renew with a half day course. Although many people have chosen to have a full day course with us. It’s our pride to provide a great day to learn!

What do I need to take part?

First pick the suitable course for you from our education shop and then follow the instructions. Basically, you’ll get notification in your email with a schedule and separate bill for the course itself. During the education day, all you need is a device to take part in our webinar. Basically any computer or mobile device with camera and microphone works.

Remember, the more you ask and tell about your goals, the more we can provide useful information.

How fast do I get the card?

You’ll get the occupational safety card straight away. After the course, I’ll provide a certificate that you have taken the course and the digital safety card is activated, usually in 12-48hours. Then the actual physical occupational safety card will arrive in 2–4 weeks by mail.

Basically when the course is done and the exam passed, you can go to the work field.

Most commonly asked when signing for the occupational safety exam:

1. What if I don’t have an employer, and it asks the information

2. What is my field?

These are two most common questions when people are signing for the safety exam. Don’t worry! They are just for keeping statics. My recommendations are 1. Employer/looking for a job / self employed and 2. Any field which is closest to your profession. These fields have no impact to your occupational safety card.
