HSE cards in Norway (Green cards)
HSE cards (HMS-kort) are mandatory for employees in several industries in Norway, including construction, cleaning, and other sectors with stringent health, safety, and environmental requirements. There are several registrations that needs to be completed before one are able to order the green cards. Your company must have obtained a Norwegian organization number and mandatory registrations must have been completed. These cards ensure that workers are properly registered and help promote transparency and accountability in the workplace.
Norwegian construction sites
When working on Norwegian construction sites, you are obliged to have a green card / HSE card for identification. More and more Norwegian contractors demand green cards from day one, and several registrations must be completed before you can order a green card. Access Norway consulting can take care of the necessary registrations and applications for HSE cards, and make sure to avoid potential obstacles during the application process.
Employers are responsible for ordering HSE cards for their staff, ensuring they are updated and valid. You are also responsible for ensuring that both the enterprise and your employees are registered in the appropriate registers and that the ID is correct when ordering HSE cards. If the HSE card is stolen or damaged you are responsible for suspending and reordering the card.
