We Provided PRASA with comprehensive health and safety training for their employees

Project Impact:

Through this project, we were able to train 158 individuals.

Problem or Challenge: 

PRASA required comprehensive health and safety training for their employees, with a particular focus on first aid, firefighting, and Safety, Health, and Environmental Representative (SHE Rep) training. This was essential to ensure the safety and well-being of their workforce and to comply with regulatory standards.

Solution Provided: 

To mitigate risks in high-hazard operations, PRASA required specialized training for their employees. Our tailored solution focused on:

Key Training Areas:

Emergency Response

1. First Aid (Level 1-3, life-saving skills for medical emergencies)

2. Fire Fighting (basic to advanced, preventing and managing fire-related incidents)

Health Compliance

1. Safety, Health, and Environment Representative (SHE REP, championing OHS best practices and legislation)

Our main objectives for the trainings were to:

1. Enhanced Stakeholder Confidence (SHE REP training and First Aid certification)
2. Improved Reputation (reduced accidents and incidents through effective Fire Fighting response)
3. Easier Access to Finance (demonstrated safety records and compliance through SHE REP)
4. Seamless System Integration (effective implementation of SHE REP and First Aid protocols)
5. Lower Insurance Premiums (reduced workplace accidents through Fire Fighting training)
6. Effective Hazard Management (SHE REP training)
7. Robust Performance Monitoring (incident tracking through SHE REP)
8. Demonstrated Legal Compliance (SHE REP and OHS legislation training)
9. Increased Productivity (reduced lost-time incidents through First Aid Level 1-3 training)
10. Reduced Employee Absenteeism (First Aid and Fire Fighting training)
11. Fostered Safety Culture (SHE REP, First Aid, and Fire Fighting training)

Training Outcome:

PRASA's workforce gained critical skills to identify, manage, and mitigate occupational hazards, ensuring a safer and healthier work environment.
