Course Overview
This comprehensive training program provides professionals with practical methodologies to identify, assess, and control workplace hazards across industries. Combining OSHA standards, ISO 45001 requirements, and best practices, the course covers hierarchy of controls, risk reduction strategies, and safety intervention techniques. Participants will gain hands-on experience through hazard simulation exercises, control measure selection workshops, and case studies from high-risk industries.
