Every year, thousands of people are injured at work — many of these injuries are preventable. The key to a safe workplace is continuous risk management, achieved through comprehensive risk assessment training and the consistent application of safety procedures. Risk assessment gives employers a structured framework to identify hazards, evaluate their impact and reduce the risk of harm to everyone in the workplace.
This course introduces the laws governing the identification and management of hazards and risks at work, the shared responsibilities of employers and employees in maintaining a safe environment, the step-by-step process for conducting effective assessments, and practical ways to prevent the most common workplace accidents.
