Occupational Safety Training in Two-Way Radio Manufacturing

1. Overview of Two-Way Radios

a. What is a Two-Way Radio?

A two-way radio is a wireless communication device that can be handheld or body-mounted to enable communication between members of a group or between independent individuals.

This device uses radio waves to transmit voice and can operate over long distances depending on the device’s transmission power.

Two-way radios are widely used in various fields such as security, construction, tourism, sports, events, and other industries that require group communication.

• 8 hours of theory on basic knowledge of occupational safety and hygiene
• 4 hours of theory on specialized training content
• 2 hours of practical training on specialized content
• 2 hours of theory test at the end of the course

The training center will arrange the sessions depending on the schedule of workers. Typically, there are 6 training sessions conducted over 3 days, provided the production company can schedule continuous learning time.

Periodic Safety Training Duration

• Before the occupational safety card expires, workers wishing to renew must complete a periodic occupational safety training course, with the periodic training duration at least 50% of the initial training duration.

Explanation: The total periodic occupational safety training duration is at least 12 hours, including testing. Upon completing the course and passing the test, the worker will receive a renewed occupational safety card.

d. Occupational Safety Card

After completing the occupational safety training and passing the test, the worker will be issued an Occupational Safety Card (commonly called Occupational Safety Certificate for Group 3).

The Group 3 safety card displays information such as full name, date of birth, specific job and work environment, as well as training duration, red stamp, and signature confirming completion.

According to regulations on issuing safety cards stated in Clause 2 of Article 24 of Decree 44/2016/ND-CP, there are two cases:

• If the employer and employee have a labor contract, the employer must sign and stamp the safety card for the Group 3 worker after completing training at an occupational safety training unit and passing the test.
• If the worker is freelance or seasonal and does not have a labor contract, the training unit must sign and stamp the safety card after the worker completes the training and passes the test.

3. Identifying Hazards Affecting Workers in Two-Way Radio Manufacturing

Some hazards that may affect workers in two-way radio manufacturing include:

• Risk of impact: Assembly, transportation, and maintenance machinery for two-way radios may pose impact risks to workers, especially when personal protective equipment such as helmets, safety shoes, and protective gloves and footwear are not worn.
• Risk of electric shock: During manufacturing, the electronic components of two-way radios may pose a risk of electric shock to workers without experience and knowledge of electricity.
• Risk of chemical poisoning: Chemicals may be used for cleaning or preserving parts of two-way radios during manufacturing, posing a risk of chemical exposure to workers.
• Risk of getting lost or injured: While working in a two-way radio factory, workers may get lost or injured for various reasons, including unsafe environmental conditions and lack of proper protective measures.
• Risk of occupational accidents: Machinery and equipment used in two-way radio manufacturing can cause occupational accidents, especially when not used correctly or safely.
