The Challenge
Providing a safe and healthy workplace isn’t just the law, its good business. Offering appropriate training in a timely and cost-effective manner is one way to reduce injuries, accidents and claims. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) guidelines are designed to provide an outline for companies to establish appropriate processes and procedures to ensure the health and safety of their employees and customers.
The challenge for most organizations is how to communicate and ensure that all employees are following the best practices in accordance with those guidelines. Employees working third shifts or at remote sites offer special challenges to training departments. Just as important from a company, perspective is tracking who hasn’t received appropriate training, especially in high-turnover positions. Injury, death, substantial fines, plant closings and negative publicity are all possible results of a poorly administered Health and Safety program.
Solution
Employers choose CyberLearning Health and Safety solution for several reasons, including: Effectiveness – All the courses require the learner to identify the correct answer to questions about content provided in the course. If he or she selects the incorrect answer, the learner is presented with the information again and given another opportunity to respond. At the end of the course, a skill assessment is given, which requires an 80% score or better to pass. Both features provide assurance to employers that their staff has learned the information.
Availability – The cyberlearningindia.org Web-based solution is available 24 hours/day, 7 days/week. Learners can access the courses when it is convenient for them, from any Web browser. This eliminates the need to bring off-shift workers in for training during the day, improving productivity.
Economical – Not only is the cost per series less than a comparable instructor-led class, but being able to cycle training in a department to avoid shutting a process down saves money and improves productivity.
