Mandatory 40-hour training in Mirandela
If you run a company in Mirandela (Bragança district), the law requires you to give each employee 40 hours of certified professional training every year. That is the rule set by Article 131 of the Portuguese Labour Code, covering the workforce of a municipality of roughly 22,000 people.
Companies in Mirandela operate mainly in textiles, footwear, metalworking and agri-food, activities with specific risks that mandatory training helps prevent. Quirónprevención, with an office in Porto, provides these businesses with DGERT-certified training recognised by ACT.
