Mandatory 40-hour training in Vila Franca de Xira
If you run a company in Vila Franca de Xira (Lisboa 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 137,000 people.
Companies in Vila Franca de Xira 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.
