Important: E-learning alone is not enough
The Norwegian Labor Inspection Authority states that e-learning must be combined with consultation or another opportunity for oral discussion and questions and answers with an expert. In addition, employers must review the product’s safety data sheet, select the appropriate training level for the actual use, and ensure that approved results are documented.
Course Certificates and Documentation
After completing the theory portion and passing the test, the participant will receive a certificate of completion for the online course. The course certificate alone does not document the entire REACH training. Full documentation must also include, among other things, who provided the training and the expert’s qualifications, the topics covered and duration, the format of the training, the date, and the approved results.
Who does this requirement apply to?
This requirement applies to employers, employees, and self-employed individuals who use or handle covered products in a professional capacity. This applies regardless of industry and how often the product is used. Check the substance index and the safety data sheet; products below the threshold or other forms of isocyanates may be subject to different training requirements.
Innovation and Responsibility
Training must be repeated at least every five years. The employer is responsible for providing the necessary training, expert consultation, and documentation prior to use.
