MUC – Training for Health

The aim of the project is to up-skill Municipal Urban Cleaners (MUCs) with enhanced access to health & safety competency training for improved quality of life and well-being. The project runs from November 2020 to August 2023.

MUCs, in general and especially during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, are considered front-line employees for municipalities in terms of exposure to health risks. The project aims at enhancing access to their training with additional qualifications for career development and improvement of their well-being. We want to empower MUCs to take pride in their work in keeping communities clean and safe for all. Our education e-program aims at developing high-quality occupational health and safety skills and competences among MUCs.

The project is funded under the “Enhancing access to training and qualifications for all” Erasmus+ initiative, with a particular attention to continuing Vocational Education Training (VET), notably by increasing quality, supply, and accessibility to VET, promoting work-place learning, supporting includes developing partnerships between micro, small and medium sized companies and VET providers aimed at providing initial and/or continuing training to their staff.
