Mandatory 40-hour training in Montijo
If you run a company in Montijo (Setúbal 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 56,000 people.
Companies in Montijo operate mainly in services, retail, logistics, construction and technology, activities with specific risks that mandatory training helps prevent. Quirónprevención, with an office in Lisboa, provides these businesses with DGERT-certified training recognised by ACT.
