OHS Trainings

Dear Member,
With reference to the letter sent to our Chamber by the Presidency of the Labour and Social Security Training and Research Centre of the Ministry of Labour and Social Security of the Republic of Türkiye, Article 38 of the Occupational Health and Safety Law, concerning the assignment of Occupational Health and Safety professionals at workplaces under the said Law, contains the provision: "For public institutions, excluding employees within the scope of the repealed Article 81 of Labour Law No. 4857, and for workplaces with fewer than 50 employees and in the low-hazard class, it shall enter into force on 31/12/2024." Furthermore, pursuant to the "Regulation on Occupational Health and Safety Services to Be Carried Out by the Employer or Employer Representative at Workplaces", occupational health and safety services at workplaces with fewer than 50 employees and in the low-hazard class may be carried out by employers who have received training approved by the Ministry.
The 16-hour training that employers wishing to provide occupational health and safety services themselves are required to receive has started to be provided by our Centre through distance learning. Those wishing to attend the training may log in to https://kampus.casgem.gov.tr/ with their e-Government password and start the training by purchasing it. The certificate obtained after the training is automatically transmitted to the Occupational Health and Safety Clerk (İSG-KATİP) application of the General Directorate of Occupational Health and Safety, providing individuals with the competence required to carry out occupational safety services at their own workplaces.
In addition, Basic Occupational Health and Safety Employee Trainings for public institutions and workplaces with fewer than 10 employees in the low-hazard class are provided by our Centre through distance learning

Kind regards,
Elazığ Chamber of Commerce and Industry
