Arbetslivslyftet – EU funding and project plan

Preparing upper secondary students for working life through practical safety education. EU support is needed to implement the initiative with more schools.

Express interest in cooperation

Under development. No funding has been approved. Budget, participants and schedule are not yet agreed.

A simple starting point for schools and municipalities

01 · Express your interest

Provide a contact name, email and a few words about your needs. No completed project plan, budget or student list is needed.

02 · Have an initial conversation

Svante will get in touch to discuss relevant training, student groups and possible cooperation.

03 · Decide when you know more

Discuss scope, responsibilities, costs and timing before making any commitment. Participation is planned after funding and agreements are in place.

For your school

Help shape training around students’ needs and connect safety education with working life. Start with one contact person and a short description of your interest.

For your municipality

Bring together schools’ needs and support local engagement. Identify someone who can discuss school cooperation.

No payment or binding agreement is required to express interest. Any co-financing or staff contribution remains to be determined; free participation is not guaranteed.

A safer transition from school to work

The ambition is to enable more students to practise situations they may encounter at work: responding to cardiac arrest, understanding risks when working at height and handling lifting operations safely. Training should complement school education, not replace employers’ responsibilities for induction and safety.

Readiness to act

CPR training gives students opportunities to practise life-saving action.

Safety from the outset

Fall protection and safer lifting connect safety knowledge with practical tasks and aim to improve risk awareness.

Access for more students

With funding, we want more schools in the Gothenburg region to access training based on their needs.

These are intended benefits, not measured project outcomes. Objectives and evaluation arrangements need to be agreed before an application is submitted.

From needs to implementation

This outline supports dialogue and a future funding application. The stages are proposed, with no agreed dates or commitments.

  1. 01 · Establish needs and engagement

    Discuss student groups, training needs and potential roles with schools, municipalities and companies.

  2. 02 · Design the training intervention

    Develop course choices and practical arrangements with RO Utbildning and interested schools. CPR, fall protection and safer lifting are the starting point.

  3. 03 · Assess funding opportunities

    Clarify the project owner, eligibility criteria, budget, possible co-financing and responsibilities before preparing the application.

  4. 04 · Implement following approval

    Confirm participants, training and schedule only once funding and agreements are in place.

  5. 05 · Evaluate and share learning

    Proposed monitoring covers participation, completed training and feedback from students and schools. Measurable targets will be established during project planning.

Partnerships, cooperation and local engagement

An established starting point

Arbetslivslyftet is being developed together with RO Utbildning in Partille. RO Utbildning already provides fall protection, safer lifting and CPR training in cooperation with Partille Upper Secondary School. That existing cooperation is a starting point, not confirmation that the school has joined a new EU project.

Seeking further dialogue partners

  • Schools: describe needs and explore participation.
  • Municipalities: support local engagement and dialogue with schools.
  • Companies: bring workplace perspectives and discuss possible support.

Roles and commitments require separate agreement. No additional organisations are presented as confirmed project partners.

Funding opportunities to explore

We intend to seek EU funding and explore regional project financing. No specific fund or call has been selected. Eligibility, target groups and financial conditions must be checked for each opportunity.

Official information is available from the Swedish ESF Council and the Swedish Agency for Economic and Regional Growth. These authorities are not named as project partners.

Help shape the initiative

Submit an expression of interest or a preliminary, non-binding declaration of intent. Svante will follow up to discuss needs and possible cooperation.
