Important to note
This e-learning course provides a basic and practical introduction to HSE for managers. The course does not cover company-specific risk conditions, internal procedures or industry-specific requirements. In order for the training to be complete, the company must also ensure local adaptation, practical use of its own HSE systems, the implementation of actual risk assessments and active follow-up in the day-to-day management work. It is also the manager's responsibility to keep abreast of changes in regulations and to ensure that HSE's work is complied with in practice.
