RISKREAL – Training low qualified workers to reduce RISKs and increase resilience in demanding industry using virtual REALity

The RISKREAL project brings together 7 partners from 4 different countries, representing different sectors, including training and education, industry and innovation and end-users, with the commitment to provide specific tools for the assessment and training of human and psychosocial skills and competences needed in low-skilled jobs in some industrial sectors, such as wind energy or similar jobs related to activities involving certain risks.

RISKREAL will complement current training to contribute to the competitiveness of companies (in terms, among others, of productivity, quality of products and services and organisational climate), as well as to the employability and quality of life of workers, through the development of a gamified app to assess the psychosocial attitudes and skills detected as relevant; theoretical training modules that make up the second outcome of the project, which will be available on digital platforms oriented to psychosocial training and coaching; and a Virtual Reality Simulator to prepare potential workers in specific situations or reproduce working conditions to better train and reinforce the contents defined in the curriculum.
