Validity of your safety awareness training
Reminder: Please check the validity of your Safety courses
Since April 2009 the compulsory basic Safety awareness courses (levels 1, 2 and 3) have been accessible on a "self-service" basis on the web (see CERN Bulletin). Participants are required to pass a test at the end of each course. The test is valid for 3 years so courses must be repeated on a regular basis.
A system of automatic e-mail reminders already exists for level 4 courses on SIR and will be extended to the other levels shortly.
The number of levels you are required to complete depends on your professional category.
| Activity | Personnel concerned | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Level 4 |
| Basic safety | Basic Safety | Specific risks | Controlled access areas | ||
| Tertiary activities | Administrative (office work, etc.) | X | X | – | – |
| ‘On site’ activities | All professional categories other than the administrative category: manual work, work in hazardous areas, etc. | X | X | X | – |
| Activities underground areas | All professional categories | X | X | X | X |
You are kindly requested to follow the level 1, 2 and 3 courses on the SIR system if you last completed them (in a class or by video in Building 55) more than 3 years ago.
You can follow the courses and complete the corresponding tests from any computer on or off the CERN site. If you do not have a CERN account, you can access the courses at the kiosks on the ground floor of Building 55 from 7.30 a.m. to 4.00 p.m.
