AUSTIN, Texas, Aug. 18, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Heavy focus this year has been placed on employers to either improve the safety at their worksites or pay the price. Among stiffer penalties, OSHA fines increased significantly with provisions for increases to inflation. The demand is on the employer to be even more diligent in efforts to keep their workforce safe.
Unfortunately for employers, many employees come on the job with learned behaviors that aren't in line with safe working practices. The big question for employers is how can behaviors be changed?
360training.com, a global EHS training leader, today announced the release of a new Behavior Based Safety Certification Program. This 30-hour online interactive certification teaches the skills needed to identify and change learned behaviors.
Using behavior analysis, trend reporting, and coaching, employers can eliminate unsafe work practices and replace them with behaviors to keep the workforce safe.
The program is designed to help companies reduce workplace injuries and employee turnover as well as the various costs associated with job-related injuries. It was created with directors, managers and supervisors in mind, to offer a comprehensive program that is scientifically proven to drive results.
Upon earning the certification offered at course completion, users will have developed the skills needed to apply them on the job and begin influencing behaviors immediately.
360training.com announced an introductory price of $999 for the program (regularly $1299), with further discounts for group enrollments.
The program is available online at 360training.com or can be deployed for teams through 360training's free LMSor integrated to an organization's existing LMS of record.
