According to Statistics Norway, the lack of skilled workers will increase dramatically towards 2035.
One of the sustainability goals we at Øveraasen are actively working on is goal 4: Quality Education.
Be a «Know How» company where we have high demands
when it comes to professional competence, integrity,
and collaboration ability, in all parts of the business.
We have high demands when it comes to professional competence, integrity, and collaboration ability, in all parts of the business, from the board to the skilled workers.
Øveraasen shall be a company that takes responsibility for its employees and gives them equal opportunities, regardless of gender, background and functional ability.
We seek to educate people with the right skills and involve ourselves in the local community by hiring apprentices and placement students.
Did you know that every year Øveraasen has 4 to 5 placement students?
We are proud to present two of our placement students, from the right, in the picture below, Sverre Fridstrøm and Jonas Løkken-Roalsøy.
Sverre Fridstrøm started at Øveraasen in August in 2021, and will be an apprentice with us for 2 years before the exam in 2023 to become an skilled industrial mechanic.
Jonas Løkken-Roalsøy is a college student who started here in 2019 and he can also take the exam in 2023 to become an skilled industrial mechanic .
These two have already mounted their first snow blower, UTV 380, under close supervision and guidance of the supervisor.
We are proud to be involved in facilitating the right, relevant and interesting education and giving talented students the competence Norway needs in the future.
