Employee training programs should be designed to make sure that all employees understand and are aware of the hazards that they may be exposed and the proper methods for avoiding such hazards.

We must evaluate how we training employees. Most of the time the training becomes an “information dumping session.” We have so much to talk, so we go on for 1-hour with not employee input or questions. At the end of the session, we usually ask, “Are there any questions?” Usually with little or no response. Then we wonder why when someone get hurt they did not understand the new rule, process, program, etc. we just presented.
