Bespoke Safety Training Solution
Create Bespoke Safety Training That Meets Your Operational Needs
While off-the-shelf, approved training can meet many general health and safety needs, you also have to deliver task-specific training to ensure your employees are equipped to perform their roles effectively and safely.
Many organisations face challenges in producing high-quality, bespoke training courses that meet internal operational requirements. Training documentation is often poorly formatted for effective learning, and face-to-face training can be difficult to manage, with inconsistent delivery.
The Human Focus Bespoke Online Training Module addresses these challenges with a comprehensive solution. It includes an intuitive course authoring tool, Content Builder, which seamlessly integrates with the Human Focus e-Learning System for easy course publication. Additionally, the Training Matrix (part of the Online Training Records Module) enables you to efficiently track and manage task-specific internal training, ensuring all competency requirements are met.
This integrated system allows you to rapidly convert your internal content into professional, task-specific online safety training. This content can be easily shared at scale via our advanced online e-learning system, ensuring consistency, compliance, and accessibility across all sites and teams.
Why You Need This Online Training Course Authoring System
In-person or paper-based training systems often suffer from the following drawbacks:
Paper-based training materials, such as policies, operating procedures, and presentations, are often scattered and inconsistent, making them hard to access, update and standardise. Without a unified system, training across teams or locations is variable. Certain workers, teams, or departments may fall behind, creating skill gaps. Over time, these gaps increase the risk of incidents, delays, and non-compliance, ultimately impacting operational efficiency.
Many training documents are written by those who lack expertise in learning design. While these documents may contain essential operational information, they’re often difficult to understand due to poor formatting and technical jargon. This leads to ineffective training and poor knowledge retention. Upskilling internal personnel to design effective learning content can be both costly and time-consuming.
Relying on face-to-face training presents multiple challenges. It’s costly to deliver, difficult to scale, and heavily dependent on the availability and skill of trainers. This results in training of variable quality, with no guarantee that all workers receive the necessary level of instruction.
Managing face-to-face training can be both complex and time-consuming. Manually tracking attendance and transferring data into a central system is error prone, leading to gaps in competency tracking. Maintaining physical proof of training or recording comprehension tests by hand is similarly unreliable. Workers risk being unprepared or unable to demonstrate their qualifications when required. Without proper competency verification, it’s difficult to prove workers are adequately trained, leaving organisations vulnerable to compliance risks and delays.
Real-world demands and scheduling conflicts make it challenging for workers to attend live training sessions. Regular training sessions may miss new starters, and it’s often impractical to run face-to-face sessions frequently enough to accommodate workload pressures. This can lead to missed opportunities for employees to gain essential skills or certifications.

How Our Clients Have Used This Bespoke Training Module to Improve Safety in Their Organisation
Standard Operating Procedures Transformed: How an International Appliance Manufacturer Turned Paper-Based Standard Operating Procedures into an Interactive Production Competency System
An international domestic appliance manufacturer faced many challenges with their manufacturing process training. Many of their standard operating procedures (SOPs) were paper-based, making them difficult to access, update, and share across a large workforce. Critical training materials were not presented in a user-friendly, engaging format, making them difficult for employees to understand. Additionally, it was hard to verify which employees had completed the necessary training, creating gaps in competency and potentially risking safety and efficiency on the production line.
To address these challenges, the company partnered with Human Focus to digitise and streamline its internal training system. Using Content Builder, the company was able to transform their paper-based SOPs into interactive, online training. This transformation not only made it easier to access training content, but it also ensured that the material was more engaging and effective, helping workers understand and retain critical information.
The client initially reformatted over 2,000 SOPs into online training content via our “done-for-you” service. This process was fast, efficient, and ensured that all content was properly structured for effective learning. The client’s internal managers were then able to use Content Builder’s simple, intuitive drag-and-drop interface to maintain and update the training content themselves. As production processes evolved, managers could edit the training materials accordingly to ensure they were always accurate and up-to-date.
The training system now delivers these interactive courses to over 3,000 employees across multiple manufacturing plants worldwide. Progress is tracked online to ensure all employees complete the required training and can demonstrate compliance with internal and external standards. Line managers can assign relevant courses to workers when they move to new operational areas, ensuring they’re well-prepared for each task.
To further improve the monitoring of training and competency, supervisors can verify training on the job by scanning QR codes linked to each employee’s Training Passport. In this application, the client added individual QR codes to employee name badges. Managers can quickly and easily assess which employees are fully trained for their specific tasks on the production line. With this simple yet effective tool, the company ensures every worker is fully prepared for their duties, reducing the risk of safety incidents and increasing overall productivity.
Life-Saving Rules Applied: How a National Building Materials Supplier Delivered Consistent Safety Training Across Its Large Workforce Using Content Builder
A leading building materials supplier faced significant challenges in consistently delivering and tracking critical safety training across a large, dispersed workforce.
Training was traditionally conducted in person, which created logistical and tracking issues for their 7,000 employees across 300 locations. It was difficult to ensure everyone received the necessary training and that participation was tracked. “We didn’t have any records – we could not see who had taken the face-to-face training. It was all held locally,” said the client. They faced additional challenges when new employees joined between training rounds, meaning they often missed critical safety instruction.
To address these challenges, the client partnered with Human Focus to rapidly convert their paper-based ‘Life-Saving Rules’ into interactive online training content via our done-for-you service. “What we’ve really improved with Human Focus is that we’ve now built our life-saving rules training online,” said the client. “When individuals come into our business, they can undertake the learning that’s relevant to them, they can see how the material works in their environment, and they get the safety awareness they need on-site.“
The client was also able to track all training progress via the online system, something that wasn’t previously possible for such a large workforce. This provided a clear overview of employee records, allowing managers to identify who had completed their training and who still required it. “Now, through the Human Focus online platform, we can see exactly who’s going through it, whether they passed, and pinpoint our learning needs,” added the client.
This was all delivered as a seamless, end-to-end service, with support from the Human Focus team at every stage. “Working with Human Focus and their learning content team really helped us get this content online quickly, making sure the material is relevant, professionally delivered, and completed within the short timescales we needed,” said the client.
Site Inductions Simplified: Save Time Onboarding and Effortlessly Track Training as Employees Arrive
Converting site inductions into online training is one of the most popular applications of our Bespoke Online Safety Training Module. It’s used extensively by our clients in a wide range of sectors, including construction, facilities management, and manufacturing, to streamline contractor management and simplify internal employee onboarding.
With Content Builder, clients can quickly transform complex, paper-based induction materials into bespoke e-learning content. Bespoke content can address site-specific hazards, compliance requirements, and operational procedures to equip new starters with the specific knowledge they need to work safely.
Online inductions can also be distributed at scale, saving significant time for both managers and trainers. Every worker, regardless of their location or when they join, also receives the same high-quality, consistent training. The Human Focus system also tracks induction completions automatically, providing a clear overview of training progress and ensuring compliance.
For last-minute arrivals or remote workers, inductions can be completed as they arrive on-site, with training records instantly updated. This centralised approach ensures that every worker receives critical safety information and that competency compliance remains current at all times.
Bespoke Manual Handling Training: Target Specific Risks to Reduce Injuries
Developing custom manual handling training is another common application of the Human Focus Bespoke Online Safety Training Module. For our clients, manual handling remains one of the leading causes of workplace injuries, costing both time and money in lost productivity and compensation.
Traditional, generic training often fails to address the unique risks workers face, leaving gaps in technique and safety, and ultimately leading to more injuries.
By using Content Builder, our clients are able to create tailored manual handling training specific to the tasks their employees perform. This bespoke approach ensures workers are learning the exact techniques they need to stay safe, with training that’s directly relevant to their role and work environment.
Clients benefit from real-time feedback with the AI-powered MMH Ergo Analyser, a manual handling ergonomics postural analyser. Using the integrated Human Focus mobile app, managers can capture video clips of workers performing manual handling tasks and automatically load them to the relevant employee training profile. The MMH Ergo Analyser then assesses the employee’s movements for safety and technique, overlaying a 3D musculoskeletal model on the video to highlight injury risks and demonstrate correct posture. This personalised video is then delivered as a mini e-learning course, providing the employee with near-instant feedback on their technique. Immediate, actionable guidance like this has been proven to have a more meaningful impact on behaviour and help employees retain and apply best practices every day.
Progress can also be tracked over time. Clients can monitor improvements and pinpoint areas where additional training may be required. Managers gain a clearer understanding of how well their teams are performing and can ensure that employees consistently apply safe manual handling techniques.
By leveraging Human Focus for bespoke manual handling training, clients in diverse industries are reducing injuries, improving performance, and fostering a safer working environment for their employees.
