Lars Hjorth Jensen

Jeg er uddannet som kemiingeniør i 1987 fra Ingeniørhøjskolen Esbjerg Teknikum og er ansat som teknisk sagsbehandler i Sikkerhedsstyrelsen hvor jeg også er arbejdsmiljørepræsentant.

Min ingeniørkarriere har i stor udstrækning haft fokus på opbygning, implementering og drift af ledelsessystemer inden for kvalitet, miljø, arbejdsmiljø og sikkerhed.

Jeg er aktiv i Esbjerg Afdelingen samt IDA Syd hvor jeg begge steder er kassér.

En stor del af min fritid bruges på vandet ombord i vores sejlbåd. Jeg har i over 40 år været medlem i Marinehjemmeværnet hvor jeg i hovedparten af tiden har været befalingsmand og officer bl.a. flotillechef og fartøjsfører.

IDA er en fagforening men også en faglig forening. Jeg synes at det er vigtigt at vi har en forening der giver mulighed for at skabe livslang læring, herunder efteruddannelse i hele karriereforløbet.

Senioringeniørerne er en stor ressource i det danske samfund og det er vigtigt denne ressource beskyttes fx i form af tryghed i ansættelsen, faglig udvikling og større frihed til at blive pensioneret i det tempo, de ønsker.

Jeg vil arbejde for at IDA forbliver en kombination af en fagforening og en faglig forening hvor der er plads til at plads til at udvikle sig både fagligt og personligt. Jeg vil have fokus på de udfordringer senere og senere pensionsalder skaber.

Som valgt, vil jeg bruge min erfaring til at arbejde for fokus på senioringeniørernes arbejdsforhold i en tid med forandringer, hvor vi ser forøgede krav i form af højere pensionsalder samt ændringer i arbejdskrav og arbejdets udførelse.

I graduated as a chemical engineer in 1987 from the Esbjerg Technical College of Engineering and am employed as a technical caseworker at the Danish Safety Technology Authority, where I am also a working environment representative.

My engineering career has largely focused on building, implementing and operating management systems within quality, environment, work environment and safety.

I am active in IDA Esbjerg Department and IDA South, where I am both cashier.

A large part of my spare time is spent on the water on board our sailboat. I have been a member of the Naval Home Guard for over 40 years, where most of the time I have been a NCO and officer, among other things. flotilla commander and vessel master.

IDA is a trade union but also a professional association. I think it is important that we have an association that provides the opportunity to create lifelong learning, including continuing education throughout the career. Senior engineers are a great resource in Danish society and it is important that this resource is protected, for example in the form of security in employment, professional development and greater freedom to retire at the pace they want.

I will work to ensure that IDA remains a combination of a trade union and a trade union where there is room for space to develop both professionally and personally. I want to focus on the challenges that later and later retirement age create.

As elected, I will use my experience to work to focus on the working conditions of senior engineers in a time of change, where we see increased requirements in the form of higher retirement age as well as changes in work requirements and work performance.
