In order to perform the higher level functions, a person must have a university degree qualification and have completed a recognised course to become a senior safety technician that which complies with the training specifications for content and hours of teaching set in the regulations. A similar approach of concrete training requirements established in legislation exists for personal to be able to carry out safety functions under construction safety legislation. The University of Salamanca has developed a Masters course to provide the accredited training for the higher level functions which leads to the qualification of senior OSH technician while taking the opportunity to promote OSH and raise awareness about it more broadly among students.
