Curriculum Approach to Safety Training

摘要

The main objectives for Safety Training are to help employees: spot and resolve unsafe acts and conditions, know and/or set safety standards and develop safe work habits. Safety Training's effectiveness increases as management pays closer attention to matching the needs of employees to the objectives of the training. A theory of learning was identified that discusses the different levels of learning. The theory, Bloom's Taxonomy, is widely used in education as an aid in forming objectives. A spiral concept was developed to illustrate how retraining could be accomplished that increases the depth of understanding. Several curriculum and problem solving views are also presented. 7 figures, 1 table. (ERA citation 10:005560)
