TTK is responsible for quality control, trainer education, maintaining the qualification register, and developing the training system. <\/p>\n<div class=\"woocommerce columns-4 \"><\/div>\n\n<h2>Training centers&#8217; own basic occupational safety courses<\/h2>\n<p>There are several basic occupational safety courses available in Finland that have been developed by training centers themselves. <strong>These are typically named very similarly to the Ty\u00f6turvallisuuskortti\u00ae brand, and confusion has not always been avoided<\/strong>. The quality of the training centers&#8217; own basic occupational safety courses varies; while there are some excellent programs, lower-quality courses have also been encountered. <\/p>\n<h2>Choosing an occupational safety qualification and meeting the requirements set by the client<\/h2>\n<p>The <strong>requirement for a basic occupational safety course typically comes from the client,<\/strong> and <strong>the client has the ultimate right to decide<\/strong> what kind of basic occupational safety training they accept and require for working in their environment. Currently, <strong>almost all companies accept the Ty\u00f6turvallisuuskortti training<\/strong>. Only some companies accept the training centers&#8217; own basic occupational safety courses, and even then, most of these companies only accept training and qualifications from specific training centers.  <\/p>\n<p>When choosing a safety qualification other than the <strong>Ty\u00f6turvallisuuskortti training, we recommend first confirming its acceptance with the company<\/strong> where you intend to work and which should accept the qualification. The Occupational Safety Card from the Centre for Occupational Safety (TTK) is typically considered a reliable choice. <\/p>\n<p>Read more about occupational safety training in our article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.koulutustukku.fi\/en\/guide-to-choosing-and-completing-occupational-safety-card-training\/\">Guide to Choosing and Completing Occupational Safety Card Training<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>A new standard was published in Spring 2024: PSK 6803 Basic training in occupational safety<\/h3>\n<p>The purpose of the standard is to create minimum requirements for basic occupational safety courses provided by different operators.
