Health and Safety Awareness Training

How safe is your workplace?

Just like much of human nature, it is easy to take safe environments for granted. After all, you may say, accidents do not happen in your workplace, and the likelihood of them happening is near zero.

But, is that really true? The bare fact is that nobody plans for accidents; they happen when least expected.

So then, is your workplace that safe? You can’t be that sure without the necessary professional health and safety assessment and awareness training.

WaruSM offers onsite health and safety awareness training to responsible/nominated persons and managers.

A safe and healthy working environment is good for business because it ensures the wellbeing of staff — which is essential to business performance and success. Expenditure on employees’ accounts for a huge quantum of overhead costs for most businesses. Therefore, creating and maintaining a safe and healthy work environment for the security of you and your employees is not only important for your business, it also makes certain that the necessary health and safety legislation and regulations are complied with.

Health and safety should not be done merely to satisfy legislative requirements. It should be embedded in an organisation’s culture. Companies that value and adequately manage health and safety at the best standards, actually benefit from it. Why don’t you avoid the health and safety (workplace accidents and ill-health) risk as well as the very probable risk of enforcement action?

Most cases of workplace accident and ill-health are as a result of employers ignoring their health and safety responsibilities. You can become compliant and avoid the unwelcome and unpleasant eventualities by undertaking best industry-standard assessment of your workplace as well as awareness training for you and your employees.

WaruSM’ health and safety awareness training is designed to give you the information, insight and knowledge you and your employees need in order for your workplace to be compliant.

The objective of our health and safety awareness training is to:

• equip you with the necessary health and safety regulatory knowledge

• identify health and safety responsibilities applicable to both you as an employer and your employees
• discuss reasons why health and safety is essential in the workplace
• understand what hazardous materials are and how to identify them
• know how to ensure fire safety and safety of life from fire
• demonstrate how to handle weights and loads in a safe way

Other specific training sessions are available such as manual handling, fire safety and DSE training.
