Employment, education and training Sample Clauses

Employment, education and training. The results of the project are not expected to have an overall impact on employment in terms of increasing overall employment numbers, but it will help to facilitate a change of employment. With the move towards using more recycled materials, there will be less need for natural aggregate to be exploited, but more need for the selection and preparation of the replacement materials. There will be a change in the job skill requirements with the change from quarrying to preparation. These changes will be in terms of actual skills required rather than the skill level. It is thus anticipated that the change will require re-training of some operatives, but that it will be an on-going process as the change to more recycling is implemented. Correspondingly, in the maintenance of highway structures there will be some growth in the number of jobs in the high technology repair sector to replace to some extent those lost in the demolition sector. These new jobs will however require higher skills and be more rewarding Any move towards performance-based specifications, particularly when all aspects of the performance of a material are considered (i.e. safety and environmental as well as functional), will enhance the understanding of engineers as to precisely what they are doing. This direct linkage of criteria to the reason for applying them is not only advantageous in ensuring that the implications of non-compliance are fully understood; it also spurs development when more explicit means of ensuring the performance are needed. The easier understanding of the logic behind the design of materials will not only make training of engineers easier, but should allow a broader population to understand the need for appropriate design. The technical guide on recycling techniques and the briefing documents produced by the project will represent very useful tools for education of road engineers. Also, in order to deploy the specific knowledge required by the advanced assessment and maintenance of highway structures, modified education programmes would be needed to fill the gap between design of a new structure and optimal assessment of an existing one. This will increase the need for specialised structural assessment engineers. Reports produced by this project could serve as background documents for training courses for structural assessment engineers and for people involved in new maintenance technologies. They could also influence the teaching programmes of universities and techn...
