About the Stručni ispit za stručnjaka zaštite na radu Exam

Stručni ispit za stručnjaka zaštite na radu is the Croatian statutory professional examination administered by the Ministry of Labour, Pension System, Family and Social Policy (MROSP) under the Occupational Health and Safety Act (Zakon o zaštiti na radu) and the implementing rulebook in NN 142/21. Passing the General Part (Opći dio) supports Level I status, while Level II requires the General and Special Parts (Posebni dio), subject to the rulebook's education provisions. Employer staffing duties depend on workforce size and risk: the current organization rule includes an exception allowing Level I coverage at some 50–249-worker employers where at least 80% of workers perform exclusively low-risk work. External services are permitted only where objective and justified reasons prevent the employer from organizing the work internally. This page provides independent English-language MCQ practice for the official outline topics.

Stručni ispit za stručnjaka zaštite na radu: Suggested Study Strategy

1Distinguish immediate inspectorate notification from the HZZO claim deadline: immediate notice applies to a death and to an injury requiring emergency medical help followed by inpatient or day-hospital retention, while the HZZO workplace-injury report is filed within 8 days.
2Use the official three-level qualitative matrix in the risk-assessment rule: combine low, medium, or high probability with slightly harmful, harmful, or extremely harmful consequence categories.
3For work equipment, learn every inspection trigger: installation before first use, relocation or reassembly, exceptional events or damage, an inspector's order, manufacturer or special-rule deadlines, and otherwise a periodic interval no longer than three years.
4Master the five safety rules for de-energized electrical work (pet pravila sigurnosti): 1. Disconnect all poles; 2. Secure against reconnection; 3. Verify zero-voltage state; 4. Earth and short-circuit; 5. Barrier or shield adjacent live parts.
5Know the statutory noise action values: lower exposure action value is 80 dB(A) (employer must make hearing protection available), upper exposure action value is 85 dB(A) (mandatory use of hearing protection), and the maximum exposure limit value is 87 dB(A) taking PPE attenuation into account.
6Review vibration exposure values under Pravilnik NN 148/23: hand-arm daily action and limit values are 2.5 and 5.0 m/s²; whole-body values are 0.5 and 1.15 m/s².
7Keep the Appendix 2 specialist outline separate from the Appendix 3 construction-site coordinator syllabus; coordinator duties are not part of this bank's claimed exam scope.
8Review the STOP hierarchy of controls in chemical and hazard management: Substitution (zamjena manje opasnim), Technical collective protection (tehničke mjere), Organizational measures (organizacijske mjere), and Personal protective equipment (osobna zaštitna oprema) as the last line of defense.
