The Program
The training is based, among other things, on regulation AFS 2015:2—Quartz (rock dust)—and covers key aspects of the new rules in AFS 2023:10 – Risks in the Work Environment, which addresses requirements for risk assessment, measures, and training for work where dust may be generated. The course also covers AFS 2023:3 – Medical Examinations in the Workplace, which sets requirements for health examinations in the event of exposure, as well as AFS 2023:1 – Systematic Work Environment Management (SAM), which regulates how employers are to plan, organize, and follow up on work environment efforts.
