The need for market qualifications in the evaluation of Regional OSH Centers

Competences gained outside the formal education system i.e. outside of school or university, more often than not have turned out to be valuable at the labour market, however they are not always precise and acknowledged. Turning them into professional qualifications (market and fragmentary) inceases market value of their holders, be them indiviuals or employees. Thus, the idea of learning throughout the whole life gains in importance. The aim of the article is to show an analysis of market experiences of Regional OSH Centers in the context of possibility and legitimacy of the implementation of market qualifications related to OSH. In the article interviewees have been given voice aplenty as their numerous quotations serve to illustrate the daily state of OSH and also tell a lot on the interviewees’ feelings and many years’ experience regarding the market. Quotations shown in the article deal with new possibilities of obtaining professional qualifications while simultaneously underline the existing, old issues in the field of OSH. The most important among them are: the need to improve the learning process of professionals, better practical vocational training and the increase in the employers awareness regarding OSH.
