Employee Training

TEMS' training system

The purpose of our training system is to foster an understanding of how our equipment operates and mastery of relevant technology and skills, along with methods for carrying out maintenance and other work safely. For around four years after joining us (depending on the relevant medium-term employee training plan), employees gain an understanding of our equipment, primarily through on-site training, and work toward obtaining various qualifications so that they know everything they need to know to perform work such as inspecting our equipment and repairing faults. From their sixth year onward, employees aim to upskill so that they can work in positions of responsibility in areas such as construction.
