English-language safety induction for workers in Poland
This English-language virtual presentation helps Polish employers onboard English-speaking employees starting work in production plants, logistics and warehouses, maintenance teams, workshops, construction and other manual-work environments. The general induction covers the foundations of workplace safety; site-specific risks and operating instructions must also be addressed by the employer.

General OHS induction
PROTECTA provides the general-induction part of initial health and safety training, with online materials accessible on our platform. The framework programme covers at least 3 lesson hours (45 minutes each).
Workplace safety obligations, basic hazards, internal transport, personal protective equipment, emergency response and first aid.
Job-specific induction
For manual-work positions, the employer must organise practical, job-specific instruction at the actual workplace, delivered by an appropriately qualified and prepared supervisor or authorised employer.
This includes machines, tools, local hazards, occupational risk and a practical check of safe working methods. The online general course does not replace this instruction.
What will your workers learn?
The course follows the Polish general-induction framework and uses practical examples relevant to manual work. It is not a substitute for site-specific practical instruction or the employer's obligation to explain actual job risks.
Employer and employee OHS responsibilities, basic workplace rules, reporting hazards and following safe-working instructions.
Common risks around machinery, powered equipment, tools, moving vehicles, falling objects, slips and manual handling; basic preventive measures.
Work clothing, protective footwear and other personal protective equipment; order and cleanliness; pedestrian routes and internal transport awareness.
Fire prevention and evacuation, emergency reporting, accident response and essential first-aid principles.
Zakres szkolenia: prawa i obowiązki BHP, zagrożenia przy pracach robotniczych, środki ochrony indywidualnej, transport wewnętrzny, PPOŻ i pierwsza pomoc. Ramowy program instruktażu ogólnego.

Frequently asked questions
Is this initial or periodic OHS training?
This is initial general induction for newly hired workers. It is not periodic OHS training. See the separate periodic training offer for manual workers (Polish).
Does online induction replace practical instruction?
No. Manual workers must receive the required job-specific instruction at their workplace, supervised by a suitably qualified and prepared instructor. Online general induction does not cover practical demonstration on local equipment.
Can the worker learn at any time?
The platform is available at any time during the 30-day period, with saved progress. The employer decides when training takes place and must comply with the applicable rules on training during working time.
Is a webinar or OHS consultation included?
A recorded webinar can be viewed as an alternative learning resource. Participants may consult an OHS inspector with questions. A live meeting via Teams, Zoom or Google Meet is arranged separately by quotation.
Can I receive documents in English?
We can prepare the documentation in Polish or as bilingual Polish–English documents, including supporting forms for the employer's training records.
How do I register a worker?
Complete the editable Word questionnaire, select the workers / manual-work category and English, and email the file without printing or signing it.
Training under Polish workplace safety rules
Initial OHS training comprises general induction and job-specific instruction. For manual-work positions, the practical element is conducted at the workplace and covers actual hazards, tools and work processes. The employer retains the legally required training record.
