Effect of Training for Security in Work (Case study; Construction Sector)
Downloads
Work is a conscious and voluntary activity, natural but troublesome for the fact that it contains attempts to create or to work a useful, material or non-material work. From a terminological point of view, work implies firstly manufacturing activity, namely performing a certain job and secondly the result of this activity, ie the work performed, the work successfully completed. Work is defined as a service, mental or physical implementation, it is defined as human, hand or intellectual activity exercised in the direction of a useful result, designated as a law-enforced effort.
In workplaces where a large number of physical workers are built or built, one of the main problems besides that of workers' coordination is to care for the health and well-being of the project without any accident stopping work on the project. Workers can not always recognize the importance of safety training or think or pinpoint it as unnecessary because they have been doing it for years. But an important benefit of security training is that there is a risk where no one can be immune to accidents. Therefore, it is important for workers to understand the purpose of the training session as to why it will be useful to them, and what may result to follow the rules and security procedures. Training, security should be organized so that the order in which the material is presented complies with the steps to be taken at work. It should also be ensured that every employee understands the training material not only that they have been present but also a test that is provided. These tips are relatively simple and inexpensive, but security gains are great.
In workplaces with a large number of workers, there must be rules and special requirements for the workers and the jobs they will make. Solving these problems has been thought and has been proven in several ways, for example, awareness and training of the team supervisor, so that he or she tends to tell the workers about the proper way of doing the job. The other way that has been proven has been the distribution of key-point books and very little detail for work safety.
These two ways were not efficient because the first problem was that a large number of employees and an attempt to show everyone how they would be doing to be safe for a person who may not be has the qualifications needed to explain that work has been very problematic.
