Lunch and Learns

Lunch and Learns with WorkSafe for Hazardous Energy Identification Training

WorkSafe Saskatchewan will be hosting sessions on using the “Energy Wheel” which is an effective tool for identifying and controlling hazards both at work and at home. 

At the very core, safety consists of three main objectives, recognize the hazard, evaluate the hazard, and control the hazard. Yet, research shows workers currently identify only 45% of hazards present in the workplace. Without properly identifying the hazard we cannot eliminate them, reduce their risk, or apply other controls.

Join this session to take a closer look at how we currently view hazards and how the energy wheel helps your brain recognize 30 per cent more hazards in the workplace.
