VCA-B

The ability to act effectively in a hazardous situation is crucial. In order to achieve this you need to be properly informed about the risks the work can entail. Safety at work is paramount for Collé, and for that reason we offer a VCA-B health and safety training course. Together we are stronger.

The course is aimed at staff carrying out high-risk work in hazardous environments, such as construction, installation or maintenance work on building sites or in factories, workshops and petrochemical plants. The course will provide participants with the necessary knowledge about the legislation and procedures relating to safety, hazardous substances and personal protective equipment.

Clients are increasingly asking for VCA certification, particularly in mechanical, electrical and civil engineering and construction. VCA qualifications are also required in various technical fields: insulation work, scaffolding, industrial cleaning, shotblasting, renovation, painting, transport, inspection...

The course is based on the examinations drawn up by the Stichting Samenwerken voor Veiligheid (Safety Collaboration Foundation). The focus is on health, safety and the environment in high-risk environments. The following subjects are covered:

Content:

• Working Conditions
• Environmental legislation
• Hazardous substances
• Risk of fire and explosion
• Promoting safe working
• Procedures and Permits to Work
• Task Risk Assessment
• Work at height
• Electricity
• Personal protective equipment
