Valuable educational activity for Occupational Safety and Health students
On June 7, the Santa Librada Bakery became the scene of a fruitful educational activity, where students of the Bachelor's Degree in Occupational Safety and Health at the Santiago Campus of UMECIT were able to identify and improve crucial aspects related to their career. The main objective of this initiative was to develop effective solution methods that benefit both companies and their human resources.
The visit was coordinated by Yeimy Vargas, a student in the final stage of the Bachelor's Degree in Occupational Safety and Health at UMECIT Santiago Campus. Vargas, who completed her undergraduate internship at the Santa Librada Bakery, stood out for her excellent performance, responsibility and dedication, which earned her being hired as the company's health and safety manager.
During the tour of the facilities, Yeimy Vargas offered detailed guidance on health and safety processes and management within the company. This orientation allowed students to identify situations for improvement, which served as a basis for their academic and professional projects.
The activity provided students with the valuable opportunity to apply their theoretical knowledge in a real environment, contributing significantly to the well-being of workers and the success of companies. These types of experiences are essential for the professional development of students, since they allow them to face real challenges and propose practical and effective solutions.
In conclusion, the activity organized at the Santa Librada Panificadora not only enriched the students' learning, but also demonstrated the positive impact of the collaboration between educational institutions and companies in the continuous improvement of occupational health and safety processes.
