(refer to the attached course programme) annex I

・OSHMS

Due to changing working environments in Japan such as complicated working process or diversified employment patterns, causes of work-related accidents have been changing in Japan. As its solution, we believe it is getting more and more necessary to encourage employers to introduce OSHMS to their workplaces to adapt themselves to these new issues.

When we organize a seminar under this subject, based on our accumulated knowledge and know-how in the field, the main contents will be as follows:

1) Japanese OSHMS experience and situation

2) Practice for OSHMS: its Basic design & introduction

3) Risk Assessment

4) Practice of Risk Assessment (Group discussion)

5) Overview of JISHA OSHMS Standards Certification Service

NOTE: Recognized its completion of this course, we will provide a certificate

・Zero-Accident Activities (Hazard Prediction Training (KYT))

The main function of the KYT training is to encourage trainees (workers) to identify unsafe behavior of workers in the workplace that may cause human errors, to promote them to find its solutions by themselves, and finally to make them well aware that such unsafe situation/behavior has been fixed all right by pointing to the item/place concerned.
