Teema: Training Requirements to work in Estonia
Dear Mr Politowski,
Thank you for your letter and for your interest about working in Estonia.
We would like to explain that if by training requirements you mean the qualifications that an employee has to have to work in your requested field in Estonia, the answer is that it is not regulated. Which means there are no precise official conditions or preconditions, but it depends on the concrete employer’s requirements and needs. More information about qualification framework in Estonia you can find at Estonian Qualification Authority webpage: https://www.kutsekoda.ee/en/. Information about the employer’s usual requirements at your requested field at current moment could be found for example here: https://cv.ee/en/ <https://cv.ee/en/> ). You can find answers to Your questions below.
What kind medical examinate (for working at height)?
According to the Occupational Health and Safety Act (§ 131, https://www.riigiteataja.ee/en/eli/527082021001/consolide <https://www.riigiteataja.ee/en/eli/527082021001/consolide> ), an employer has an obligation to organise a medical examination for an employee whose health may be affected by some working environment hazard or nature of work. The content of the health examination should be decided between the employer and occupational health doctor based on the risk assessment of the working environment. The first medical examination should be carried out within four months as of the time the employee commences work and regular medical examinations based on the interval set out by the occupational health doctor, but at least once every three years.
HSE training?
According to the Occupational Health and Safety Act (§ 133), an employer hall instruct an employee before commencement of work, incl. among other thing on the enterprise’s occupational health and safety requirements; results of a risk assessment of the working environment, including hazards in the employee’s working environment, the employee’s health risks and measures taken to prevent damage to health; safety requirements for the work to be carried out and for the work equipment used; ergonomically correct working positions and techniques and the use of means of collective protection and personal protective equipment.
An employer shall also organise for an employee in the workplace training for learning safe working techniques, taking into account, among other things, the distinctive nature and level of danger of the employee’s work. An employer may allow an employee to work if the employer is convinced that the employee knows the enterprise’s organisation of occupational health and safety and can apply safe working techniques in practice.
In addition, the employer should appoint an employee (working environment specialist) to perform occupational health and safety responsibilities in the enterprise (Occupational Health and Safety Act § 16). The working environment specialist should have working environment related knowledge and skills that are sufficient to perform his/her responsibilities. An employer who has working environment related knowledge and skills may perform the duties of a working environment specialist. The training of the working environment specialist is not regulated in the Occupational Health and Safety Act. It is up to the employer to ensure that the employee performing the occupational health and safety responsibilities, have sufficient knowledge and skills.
We would also like to add, that Central Authority that regulates the requirements for employers is Labour Inspectorate (https://www.ti.ee/en). If you would like to have information about the requirements for employers (safety, working conditions etc) please read here: https://www.ti.ee/en/foreign-worker/applicable-law-and-working-conditions-0 <https://www.ti.ee/en/foreign-worker/applicable-law-and-working-conditions-0> . There are also requirements for employer about occupational health and safety (additional information from Occupational Health and Safety Law: https://www.riigiteataja.ee/en/eli/522042021002/consolide <https://www.riigiteataja.ee/en/eli/522042021002/consolide> ).
