Benefits of Delivering Online Health And Safety Training Program

By Snehnath Neendoor | Employee Training | 0 comment | 31 December, 2022 | 0

As an employer, workplace safety should always top your priority list, and health and safety training programs should form an integral part of your safety plans. Organizations are invariably expected to provide a safe workplace environment that is free of health and safety hazards. A safe workplace will make employees feel more secure, comfortable, and productive.

National safety council states that a worker is injured every 7 seconds at the workplace. This is a staggering number. Through proper health and safety training programs, most of these injuries can be avoided.

Organizations need to realize that health and safety training is not just something they are obligated to provide, but something that can reap benefits in the long run. Additionally, companies can avoid facing any legal actions for not abiding by government workplace safety regulations.

Through this blog, we look into the ways health and safety training can benefit your organization and why you should leverage an online platform for training delivery.

Top Benefits of Delivering Health and Safety Training in Your Organization

1. Makes Employees Safety Conscious

An all-round health and safety training should be aimed at spreading awareness about different hazards in the workplace and how they should be handled. Through health and safety training, employees become more aware of the workplace hazards, how to recognize them, how to manage them, and most importantly, what precautions are to be taken to prevent those hazards.

 2. Prevents Injuries and Accidents

As the saying goes ‘Prevention is always better than cure’, health and safety training is the best precautionary measure you can take towards protecting your employees. Such training programs will put your employees in the best position to handle situations before they turn worse and cause major harm.

 3. Increases Employee Productivity

Workplace safety awareness will significantly reduce the number of accidents and harmful incidents. If ignored, it can cripple the competitiveness of your organization and lower the efficiency. With health and safety training, employees are less likely to stay on leave due to job-related accidents. This will eventually transform into high productivity as employees will be more invested in a safe workplace.

 4. Builds Company’s Reputation

Though intangible, this is the greatest benefit of health and safety training. This brands your organization as empathetic towards employee needs and safety. Employees value organizations that care for them.

5. Ensures Compliance with Health & Safety Legislation

The Health and Safety Act, 1974 states that employers must protect the health, safety, and welfare of all their employees at work, as well as others on their premises, and provide any information, instructions, health and safety training, and supervision to ensure employee well-being at workplace.

6. Creates a Safe Work Environment

Safety training programs like fire & equipment training, medical emergency training will create an astute sense of safety amongst your employees. Training programs like POSH will help in creating a safe and respectful workplace for women employees. Other safety training programs educate employees to take necessary actions during unfortunate events, such as a fire breakout, earthquake, etc., and minimize the damage caused.

Guide: How to Deliver Workplace Safety Training on Mobile Devices

Why should you use an online platform to deliver health and safety training?

As decision-makers of an organization, you can provide health and safety training to your employees through online training platforms that support blended learning, caters to all learning types, and makes learning more interactive and immersive. Here are some more reasons to opt for the online delivery of workplace health and safety training.

1. To Standardize Safety Training

Through online training, you can easily streamline and standardize your health and safety training to ensure that a uniform message is delivered to all the employees. It is easier to maintain a consistent standard while training your employees to be compliant with health and safety regulations.

2. To Make Health and Safety Training More Impactful

Health and safety training should be designed by safety training experts. Online training lets you deliver so much more with all the interactive elements and multimedia at your disposal. Online training will make learning more immersive and relatable along with practical assessment tools.

3. To Use More Delivery Options

One of the greatest advantages of delivering health and safety training online is the flexibility it offers. Location and time-zones are no longer a barrier to training delivery. Online training gives you the freedom to deliver training modules on mobile devices. Employees can access the modules on any platform they want, and at any time.

4. To Optimize the Training Cost and Time

The costs incurred in the instructor-led and classroom-style training delivery methods can be saved through online training. Traditional training methods consume a lot of time, from meticulous documentation to scheduling of classroom training. Online training eliminates all the time-consuming aspects to deliver quick and efficient training.

5. To Promote Safety Culture and Boost Employee Morale

Delivering effective online health and safety training is an excellent way to show your employees that you care. Employees will be motivated to work for an organization that proactively cares for their health and safety, eventually leading to higher morale and improved productivity at work.

6. To Monitor Training Effectiveness

Another benefit of online training over the traditional one is the detailed analysis it provides. Online health and safety training makes it easy to track the course content consumption, progress of employees, results of the assessments, and learning behavior of employees. It will help you gauge if the employees are clear about what they should be doing in case of an emergency or similar situation. You can then provide personalized feedback to each employee and improve the overall training experience.

Conclusion

Online health and safety training is the most ideal and effective way to speed up the training delivery process. This not only maintains consistency in the training delivery but also provides instant access to training modules and offers substantial cost savings. The ripple effect of anything you do for your employees will eventually show its benefits. Health and safety training creates a positive work environment and increases employee morale and productivity. Online health and safety training will show them that you care and in turn, they will care for the company.
