Hands - On Interactive Safety Training

By: Matt McCreery

Interactive or hands-on training techniques play a critical role when conveying safety knowledge and demonstrating safe work behaviors in hazardous work environments.  Interactive training is effective because it instills the realization that an actual injury/illness can occur.  This type of training exposes attendees to the vulnerable feelings of being the victim, and can provide motivation to learn about how to avoid such hazards. 

The effectiveness of interactive training stems from the realization that an actual injury/illness can happen and from the “vulnerability” an attendee feels, can play a primary role in motivating individuals to learn about how to avoid exposure to such hazards.

Safety Resources offers customizable training courses that include aspects of both traditional classroom settings as well as interactive approaches that encourage adult learning and employee buy-in.  We focus on eliminating the “old school” mentality of construction work and strive toward creating an atmosphere of engaging training with focus on real world scenarios that your workforce can relate to.
