Office Safety & Ergonomics Training
Safe Work Practice
An estimated 76,000 concussions, contusions, dislocations, fractures, sprains and strains occur each year to office workers in the U.S. Traditionally falls have accounted for largest percentage of office injuries, but carpal tunnel syndrome and other repetitive motion injuries are on the rise as more and more of us sit in front of a computer at our jobs.
A safe work environment increases productivity, so keeping employees aware of potential hazards in the office environment and teaching them how to keep their work area safe, becomes paramount to the success of any business.
Intended for all office employees, this online safety training covers hazards found in the office environment, common office-related illnesses, typical office injuries, and how to prevent them. It also addresses how to respond to an emergency situation in the office.
Emphasis is placed on the importance of good office ergonomics in reducing fatigue and injury. Also discussed are the benefits of taking breaks and getting up and stretching whenever someone begins to feel stiff or tired.
At the conclusion of this training, office personnel will understand the importance of safe work practices and good housekeeping in maintaining a safe work environment.
Upon successful completion of our Office Safety & Ergonomics course each student will have access to a printable certificate, and will be provided a wallet card.
