The basic occupational-safety instruction is required by law — before starting work and regularly thereafter. Safety and health at work are a legal obligation — and lived care for your team.

The course covers the goals and basic duties of the German Occupational Safety Act, the logic of risk assessment and typical hazards, employer and employee obligations, and the right response to emergencies and accidents. The content is coupled to ArbSchG and updated whenever the legal situation changes.

The topic ships in two formats: a full story course (approx. 25 minutes) with voiced video dialogues, decisions and a final test — or a micro series (approx. 25 minutes in total) released in short units over several weeks. Learners receive a personal certificate after passing the test; every completion is documented audit-proof. Available in up to 10 languages with native voice-over.
