Occupational Safety and Health Training Courses

An investigation into occupational accidents reveals that the majority (>80%) of accidents are caused by human error or unsafe behavior.

The most effective way to prevent such accidents is through labor safety and health training. This training helps promote safe working methods and correct hygiene practices, thereby preventing losses or injuries caused by occupational accidents.

The investigations into occupational accidents found that ‘man-caused factors’ are the major reasons behind these incidents. Approximately 80% of unsafe actions originate from human activities.

The prevention and control measures rely on the promotion of “labor occupational health and safety education and training.” This education and training help establish safe working methods and correct hygiene concepts for employees, effectively preventing losses and damages caused by occupational accidents.
