INTRODUCTION RISK ASSESMENT MANAGEMENT : SPOTTING HAZARDS AND MAKING BETTER DECISIONS
The Risk Assessment Management course equips participants with the essential knowledge and hands-on skills to systematically identify hazards, assess potential risks, and apply practical solutions in the workplace. This comprehensive training is specifically designed for professionals working in manufacturing environments, where risk management plays a critical role in maintaining safety, productivity, and compliance.
The course simplifies complex risk management concepts into easy-to-understand modules that focus on real workplace scenarios. Through interactive discussions, group activities, and guided exercises, participants will gain confidence in spotting hazards and making informed decisions that contribute to a safer and more efficient working environment.
By combining theory with practical applications, this course encourages participants to actively engage in assessing risks around them. Whether you are a safety officer, supervisor, or team leader, this program helps you strengthen your ability to recognize potential hazards and take proactive measures to control or eliminate them.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
By the end of this course, participants will:
Define risk and hazard in clear, simple terms that can be easily applied in daily operations.
Identify hazards systematically using practical tools and real workplace examples.
Assess and prioritize risks based on their level of impact and likelihood, allowing for better decision-making.
Recommend control measures that effectively reduce or eliminate identified risks in the work environment.
Apply risk assessment methods directly to their own work area to improve safety and performance.
These learning outcomes are designed to ensure participants not only understand the theory of risk management but can also translate that knowledge into actionable steps within their organizations.
