U radu se razmatraju ključna pitanja osposobljavanja radnika za siguran rad u operativnom šumarstvu kao temeljnom uvjetu kvalitete i ekonomičnosti rada u šumarskoj proizvodnji. U osvrtu na stanje osposobljavanja u razvijenim europskih zemljama navode se obveze poslodavaca vezano za odgovarajuće osposobljavanje rukovatelja strojeva, uređaja i alata pri izvođenju šumskih radova. Pritom se prikazuju pristupi i trendovi u osposobljavanju u posljednjem desetljeću te modeli i postignuti dosezi s posebnim naglaskom na do sada razvijene sustave certificiranja osposobljavanja u Europi i ključne elemente takvih sustava. Kao primjer uspješnih rješenja prikazuju se modeli osposobljavanja putem šumarskih trening centara, gdje se obukom stečena znanja i vještine potvrđuju obveznom provjerom i izdavanjem certifikata. Stanje stručnog osposobljavanja šumskih radnika u Hrvatskoj razmatra se u kontekstu moguće primjene pojedinih europskih sustava certificiranja šumskog rada u Hrvatskoj. S obzirom na potrebe, postojeće stanje osposobljavanja i profil ključnih aktera šumarskog sektora Hrvatske, kao najizglednijom za skoru primjenu u Hrvatskoj, ocjenjuje se provedba europskog standarda za rukovatelja motornom pilom. Zaključno se daje pregled zakonodavnih i organizacijskih zahtjeva za primjenu do sada razvijenih europskih modela u izgradnji sustava certifikacije osposobljavanja šumskih radnika u Hrvatskoj. ; The Introduction provides an overview of research findings related to danger and risk in the forestry profession toward other sectors through the standard indicators of safety at work on the example of the United States, Spain, Germany, Austria and other countries. On the other hand, training and periodical qualification verifying of the employee to work with the operating machinery and safe working practice are emphasized as an essential element in the process of improving the quality of work and safety in operational forestry. In addition, trends and changes in the education and training of human resources in forestry in general and the role of vocational training of forest workers in the prevention of injury and increase operational safety levels at work are cited.The subtitle material and method provides the most relevant sources that are used as the basis for drafting paper, such as, a document entitled »Professions and Training in Forestry – results of an inquiry in Europe and North America«, Eduforest International internet platform and internet platform of the European Forestry and Environmental Skills Council. Also, for the purpose of the paper forming the application of analysis and synthesis, comparison and compilation methods is explained.The third subtitle displays situation analysis of workers vocational training in forestry sector within which the Copenhagen Declaration is highlighted, which advocates strengthening and popularization of vocational education and training.Networks and programs in the field of forestry training within Europe are listed in the Table 1., and more detailed analysis of registered educational institutions in the Eduforest network basis and the results of the analysis are shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2. Heading 3.1 clarifies the role of vocational training of workers in forestry. In addition, a positive step of vocational training of workers in forestry at European level is highlighted through the establishment of the European Forestry and Environmental Skills Council whose mission is to simplify the mobility of workers in forestry and arboriculture within the EU through processes of accreditation and promotion of individual national qualifications between the partner countries at European level. Current condition on vocational training for chainsaw operator in the forestry of Croatia are explained in subtitle 3.2. Inconsistent and incomplete programs and training activities, a significant reduction, or the absence of practical training and the use of non-transparent criteria in the carried out training assessment are cited as the biggest problem. Subtitle 3.3 clarifies the role and contribution of the European Forestry and Environmental Skills Council in the training of workers. The subtitle lists the criteria for acquiring the status of a national center / agency prescribed by EFESC Handbook, and the list of national agencies accredited by the EFESC in Table 2. The logo of the European Forestry and Environmental Skills Council is presented in Figure 4. Implementation of the European Chainsaw Standard is explained in the text and four levels of European Chainsaw Standards are presented in Figure 6. Figure 7 displays German example of the European Chainsaw Standards implementation, and Table 3 shows the implementation of European Chainsaw Certificate within EFESC countries.The heading Discussion and Conclusion specify the limits of training and vocational training in the scope of forestry on the example of the dual education within the specialized institutions, namely, forestry training centers that provide comprehensive training in technical, safety and vocational aspect. In conclusion, in this paper the technical, organizational and legislative guidelines are listed for the potential implementation of the European model of certification of forest workers in the Croatian forestry with the aim of improving the current situation.

This paper discusses the key issues of forestry workers training in Croatia, especially dealing with the providers of vocational training, their profile, training procedures and measures necessary for training improvement. A combined approach of literature review, internet search and questionnaire of training providers was applied in order to collect data on training programs conducted in Croatia. The research was conducted during 2016, and it included 94 legal entities authorized for occupational safety training in the Republic of Croatia, with respect to safe working practice training and vocational training for operating machinery (chainsaw and/or skidder). The analysis used basic descriptive statistics. Research results showed that 30.85% of the analyzed legal entities provide only training for safe working practice, 15.96% provide both trainings – safe work practice and vocational training for operating machinery, 5.32% of the analyzed entities provide only vocational training for operating machinery, 31.91% do not carry out any form of training in forestry, while 15.96% refused to answer questions. On the other hand, 15.56% of the legal entities, which do not carry out any training or did not answer these questions, have on their official website services posted for vocational training in operating machinery (chainsaw and/or skidder). The key findings of the conducted research have pointed out the great heterogeneity amongst providers of forestry workers training, and certain reductions or limitations in the current training programs, both from the aspect of duration of the theoretical and practical training, and the use of non-transparent criteria and standards in the assessment of training. As an example of successful solution in forestry workers training, European Chainsaw Standard model (ECS) is shortly presented in the paper. Discussion and conclusion sections provide an overview of legislative and organizational requirements for the application of previously developed European model (ECS) in developing the certification system for training of forestry workers in Croatia.
