Every year, vast quantities of chemicals are sold and shipped, for use in workplaces around the world.
And, with a global level of trade comes a need to ensure that the hazards pertaining to chemical products are clearly communicated - regardless of where in the world those products are being put to use.
While national laws and regulations relating to chemicals may be similar, they are often different enough to require multiple sets of Labels, Safety Data Sheets, and other information when being traded internationally.
All this creates the potential for confusion - which, when dealing with hazardous chemicals - could have disastrous consequences in the workplace.
Developed at the UN level, the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (or GHS for short) aims to develop a single, globally harmonized system to address:
This program provides an overview of these elements as your workplace makes the transition to the GHS.

This program has been produced to inform and educate on the safety issues that exist in the office environment. It looks at the common and often overlooked hazards that could exist in an average office, and how these hazards can be recognized and controlled to reduce the risks to individuals working in offices.
The program provides:
It’s easy to consider the office a perfectly safe work environment, and forget about the hazards that can exist. Just because you work in an office, it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be concerned for your own health and safety, and that of your colleagues.

Material handling occurs in one way or another in every department of every business on every working day - it is not surprising that accidents and injuries resulting from incorrect manual handling techniques comprise the largest group of occupational hazards that result in lost time.
This program covers the following:
It is important to understand that of all the manual handling activities that put people at risk, lifting and carrying of objects accounts for 75% of all manual handling accidents and injuries.
The principles of correct lifting and carrying must therefore be an important part of any manual handling training program.
This program has been produced with the general workforce in mind, however, because the principles remain unchanged, regardless of the location, it is a program suitable for a wide audience.

Falls represent the largest single cause of accidental death in the workplace.
About 40% of these falls result in falling from one level to another, many from ladders. Many of these falls are serious, but more importantly, many could have been avoided if safety procedures were followed.
This program looks at the selection and safe use of ladders in the workplace.
The following areas are covered:
This program has been designed for general training for all personnel who use ladders.

In the past, safety was often regarded as just an adjunct to production.
Today, it is well recognized that managing safety issues efficiently and effectively will contribute to an organization's financial viability and it will demonstrate a commitment to the most valuable asset of any organisation; its people.
Safety awareness is the starting point to accident prevention.
Included in this program:
What is Safety Awareness?
It's a responsibility, a commitment, an obligation. It's common sense, teamwork and safe work procedures. It's recognising hazards and showing a willingness to act to control any hazard present.
The program has been designed for all personnel. It can be used as a general safety training program and can also be utilised as an induction program for new personnel to introduce safety concepts.

Some workplace hazards are obvious: when there is a risk of physical injury in the workplace, it can be relatively easy to identify and address. But work can also carry risks to mental health.
This program examines the various ways stress can affect members of an organization as well as potential methods for combating it.
Topics included in the program:
Work-related stress is not always the easiest of workplace hazards to identify. But being aware of the potential risks, and moving pro-actively to prevent stress taking hold, will help minimize the chances of stress-related illness.

MORE INFO</> Embed
Electric Arc Welding is a vital industrial process which makes it possible for us to fuse two separate pieces of metal together into one solid mass. The principle is the same as when you take the exposed wires from the positive and negative terminals of a fully charged battery and touch them together, and we all know what happens then: A Spark.
In Arc Welding, this ‘spark’ between oppositely charged poles is maintained, and becomes an ‘electric arc’ which generates tremendous heat: Up to 6,000°C at the point of contact between the poles.
This raises the temperature of the metals to the point at which welding can occur.
The program shows correct and safe techniques as well as equipment knowledge and includes:
Striking the Arc
Correct procedures for a variety of Welds including:
