SOLUTIONS GROUP |
Customized Training
for Today's Workplace
|
Professionals charged with the responsibility of managing workplace safety and environmental risks must deal with a broad array of issues ranging from safe operating practices to environmental (air, noise, lighting, etc.) hazards to chemical & medical emergency response. Successful accomplishment of this responsibility on a continuing basis can only occur when an organization designs and constantly enforces a strong safety management system.
Training programs offered by The
Solutions Group in the area of safety management are designed to support
the safety professional by not only developing workforce skills in safe
operating and prevention practices but also expanding knowledge of how
risk management affects an enterprise’s bottom line.

Classroom instruction is supported by hands-on practical application, including environmental testing and emergency simulation. Rather than approaching safety training/planning from the standpoint of only one particular agency, training programs offered by The Solutions Group consider and incorporate relevant regulations from a wide variety of regulatory sources, such as OSHA, EPA, NIOSH, DOT, and others.
