Industrial Sector Awareness Campaign

 

As part of its relentless efforts to build industrial sector workers’ capacities in GCC countries and Yemen and its commitment to engage Gulf industries in projects and activities to boost the sector, the Gulf Organization for Industrial Consulting (GOIC) holds a workshop about “Occupational Safety in Firms” at Warwick Hotel in Dubai, UAE from the 8th till the 11th of December 2014.

 

This training held under GOIC’s Training and Capacity Development Program (TCD) targets trainers, supervisors, heads of departments and safety supervisors at public and private factories, corporations and firms, in addition to all parties involved in guaranteeing occupational safety in industrial facilities.

 

It aims at shedding light on workplace hazards, material safety data sheets and background information necessary to guarantee safety of firms and workers. The training highlights not only hazards, but also preventive measures, notably related to long working hours. It also allows participants to acquire a set of safety skills and be up to firms’ safety requirements, in accordance with comprehensive development and healthy workplace environment standards.

 

The workshop’s themes are: causes of accidents, workplace injuries and relevant preventive measures, firms’ designs meeting standards, safety analysis for various professions, safety inspection measures and tools, safety instructions in factories, international safety laws and regulations, detection and warning systems and using behavioural and psychological skills to prevent accidents and precautionary measures in general.

 

GOIC seeks to promote individual and organizational capacities of the industrial sector in GCC countries and Yemen through its Training and Capacity Development Program (TCD).
