Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment Training

The Banking Sector Education and Training Authority is inviting proposals for the provision of Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (HIRA) training aimed at enhancing the skills of 14 members of its Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) committee. The training will span two days and will cover essential topics such as the legal requirements under the Occupational Health and Safety Act, the importance of conducting risk assessments, and the various types of hazards present in the workplace. Participants will receive accredited certification upon completion, ensuring they are equipped to implement effective safety protocols and comply with occupational safety regulations.

The selected service provider will be responsible for delivering interactive training sessions that include practical exercises, group discussions, and the development of tailored solutions for specific workplace hazards. Additionally, the provider must supply all necessary training materials, including documentation for risk assessments and compliance policies. The training venue, along with breakfast and lunch for participants, is also to be arranged by the service provider. This initiative not only aims to improve workplace safety culture but also helps organizations avoid penalties associated with non-compliance, ultimately fostering a safer working environment for all employees.
