The industrial sector is a dangerous place to work in. Industrial employees often operate powerful machines, work at height, on roadsides, in confined spaces, near workplace transport and in other such situations. These types of work activities not only increase the risk of accidents, but also the consequences when they do.
There were an estimated 92,000 cases of work-related ill health recorded in the manufacturing industry, in the most recent year that data is available from the Health and Safety Executive. In this same period, the sector saw 22 fatal injuries. This contributed to around 18% of total injuries across the UK during this time period.
Human error is at the heart of many of the accidents that happen in the workplace. In order to help reduce these from occurring, it’s important to ensure everybody understands how their own mindsets and attitudes can have an impact on the overall safety of the industrial workplace.
This online course looks at the types of attitudes and workplace culture that increase the likelihood of an accident occurring. It provides users with an understanding of what they can do to prevent them.
