Results
Following the reform efforts, the quality of the training
providers was strengthened. The number of contracted
training providers reduced from 119 in 2006 to 65 in
2007 as result of the higher standards.
Moving forward
Despite the reduction in the number of training
providers, the Department of Labour Protection and
Welfare still managed to train 91,353 safety officers
from September 2006 to June 2007. Refresher training
courses for safety officers experience high participation
rates and more improvements are expected.
