Why has the number of work-related fatalities remained stagnant and, in some industries, started to increase in recent years? The reality is that while the incident prevention programs we have deployed have significantly reduced the total number of recordable injuries, they have had limited impact on reducing the number of fatalities. This is because injury prevention is different than fatality prevention. Through discussion of scenarios and case studies, you will establish the foundational knowledge and building blocks you need to bring this new way of thinking into your organization.
Our Live Virtual Classroom provides all the benefits of face-to-face instruction without the travel time. If you have a computer with a camera, audio and internet access, you’re ready to learn wherever you are at exactly the same time as other attendees. Instructors can see you and you can see them. Plus, you can ask questions and engage with other virtual learners in real time.
What You Will Learn
- Describe the context of the problem on why traditional methods for addressing industrial incidents do not apply to serious injuries and fatalities
- Develop a deeper understanding of how essential controls are established, and more importantly how they are verified, in the field to support better outcomes
- Summarize case studies and scenarios to reinforce learning and support the shift in thinking from “stop work” to “start work when certain”
