Confined Space Safety Training from Abhisam launched
Abhisam is pleased to announce the launch of its new Confined Space Safety training, in the popular XPRTU (e-learning) format. This software based training course is essential if you intend to work in a confined space, or you have employees or contractors that work in confined spaces. Every year hundreds of workers die every year due to lack of training in working in confined spaces. Most people do not realize that they are in any kind of danger until it is too late. Confined Spaces are all around us, not only in industries. If you are an employer who has employees or contractors that have to work in confined spaces (even if it is just once a year), then it is mandatory by law to train them and also to maintain certain safety systems and records. In the US alone, authorities like OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) has fined many companies millions of dollars in fines, for confined space safety violations. Do not be the victim of ignorance. Protect your workers from harm and yourself too (from financial and criminal legal liabilities) today by learning about Confined Space Safety. This course has been designed keeping in mind all the various OSHA guidelines and can be purchased online immediately. There are several options including taking it online, downloading it or accessing it via the Abhisam Learning Management System (Enterprise version). The advantage of the Enterprise version is that Abhisam will provide you the entire training records of your employees, who are enrolled into the course, so that you can maintain the training records as required by law. The course is comprehensive and consists of the following modules and have text, narration (full voice over explanation), animations, case studies, video and self assessment test. It also has a sample Safety Permit that you can use as a template to make your own! Here is a snippet from the course. The full video, you can watch when you buy the course.
