VIRAC, Catanduanes, Sept 6 (PIA) — The Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) Bicol regional and provincial offices, and the Bureau of Working Conditions will spearhead a Live-Out Construction Safety Training on September 17-21 at Rackdell Inn, Virac, Catanduanes.
The five-day training, which is equivalent to 40 hours training, is under the Occupational Safety and Health Standards pursuant to Article 162 of the Labor Code of the Philippines (P.D. 442).
The said activity is expected to strengthen the construction industry.
It will tackle occupational safety & health standards; DOLE Department Order 13, series of 1998 “Guidelines in the implementation of OSH in the Construction Industry;” DTI-PCAB licensing and renewal requirements; training requirements for DOLE accreditation as safety practitioner pursuant to Department Order No. 16, s. 2002; and administration and enforcement of occupational safety and health standards.
A registration fee of P7,000 will be required per participant which will cover food, two snacks and one meal including the training kit, honorarium of speakers, certificates, and other expenses.
Each construction firm is required to have a minimum of two participants.
Increased awareness on safety and health in the province and eventual reduction of incidence of occupational accidents is the target of the activity. (EAB-PIA 5, Catanduanes)
