General Safety Education Courses
Many corporations and agencies require that their safety personnel take general safety education courses periodically to refocus their efforts on continued improvements in the workplace. In some environments, management may require specific safety education courses as a condition of employment. In some construction or first responder roles, many courses will be mandated.
The National Safety Council emphasizes that safety training should begin for all new employees shortly after hiring. The main reason is that workers generally will be open to ideas and information about how their new organization operates just after hiring. Secondarily, new employees are more likely to experience a work-related incident because of lack of experience, a lack of familiarity with the company’s procedures and an eagerness to work. It’s best to start with GOOD habits early by introducing appropriate safety education courses for these workers to take advantage of that eagerness.
