TOP 10 HEALTH AND SAFETY COURSES IN SINGAPORE - PAGE 25

The safety hazards of working cannot be ignored. All of us are always exposed to such hazards as there is always a chance of falling, whether we are working on ground-level, below ground-level, or above ground-level.

The three main forms of electrical hazards are fires, explosions and contact with exposed live parts. These are most commonly due to poor electrical installations and static electricity. Many serious and even fatal accidents involving electrical shocks and burns are reported every year.

PPE is an essential defence against exposure to on-the-job hazards. Although companies have implemented engineering control and work procedures to reduce job hazards, PPE is necessary to protect workers against unforeseen threats.

The adverse effects of noise on human beings are easily overlooked by both management and operators. Yet, it is still essential to protect employees from noise-induced deafness through the implementation of a Hearing Conservation Programme.

The Perform Work in Confined Space Operation for Workers is a mandatory safety course that must be attended by all employees working in confined spaces.

The Perform Work at Height (PWAH) course is a mandatory safety course that must be attended by all employees doing construction work at heights.

The Apply Workplace Safety and Health in Logistics and Transportation Course (AWSHLT) is a basic WSH course for delivery drivers, forklift operators, warehousing workers and material handlers working in the Logistics and Transport Industry.

Delegates will learn to consider when there can be alternatives to manual handling by planning before acting. Where manual handling in a wind turbine environment is unavoidable, we will teach and demonstrate the correct methods which aim to prevent injury as a result of lifting.

The goal of this course is to give the delegates essential knowledge and skills to help prevent fires, make appropriate judgements when there is a fire, manage an evacuation of personnel and ensure the safety of all on site.

You will learn how to use basic PPE and how to work at heights safely. We also teach techniques for a basic rescue from heights in a remote wind turbine environment.
