Employee Safety Orientation: Starting Out Right

One of the most important things about a new job starts on day one, and must become a constant, ongoing process: safety. This course teaches new workers the basic safety rules, as well as advice on how to reduce their risk on the job.

This comprehensive safety orientation course starts by demonstrating to workers how to protect themselves at work using different types of PPE (Personal Protective Equipment). Learning when and how to protect your hearing, hands, head, eyes, feet, and lungs are covered in this course. By learning how to be aware of the potential risks at work, new workers understand the necessity of properly wearing PPE.

This course also discusses the everyday dangers present in your workplace. Some modules discuss the handling of hazardous materials, preventing slips, trips, and falls, forklift safety, hazard communication, lockout-tagout, and bloodborne pathogen risks. Workers also learn the necessary precautions they need to take when dealing with emergencies or injuries. The procedures and advice presented in this course, when properly applied, help keep the work environment a safe place.
