How we act at work on a day-to-day basis can have a significant impact on whether or not accidents and ill health occur. Staff may understand the safety measures in place to protect them, but they may also be tempted to cut corners or take the easier route. These might seem like not a big deal in the moment, but can result in severe consequences.
This course is designed to provide office workers at any level with an understanding of what behaviours they can engage in to minimise risk to themselves and others.
Why Is Behavioural Safety Training in Offices Important?
Whilst office environments may not seem like highly dangerous places to work, accidents and ill health do occur. Manual handling injuries; slips, trips and falls; and repetitive strain injuries are all common.
Employers have a duty to provide adequate risk controls for these hazards. However, these controls are meaningless if they aren’t followed.
This course is designed to provide office staff at any level with an understanding of how their behaviour affects their safety. It looks at what they can do to protect themselves and others.
