About
UsAs a former
police officer and a firefighter I've been involved in public
safety most of my adult life. Now that I'm older I'm putting
what I've learned from experience and been taught in a training
program that will benefit others. It's important that a person
who is going to teach a subject be knowledgeable of the subject
matter he or she will be passing along to others and life
experience plays a major role in instructions as well as the
written course topics that apply to the training topics you are
covering.
Safety and security is
with us every day of our lives. But we still take it for granted
- like not wearing gloves or eye protection where or when
needed, leaving your keys in your car, or the doors unlocked,
just to name a few. I feel it's my responsibility to communicate
these safety and security issues to the personnel I've been
asked to educate and train. I work by getting to my students'
level so I can make sure she or he will understand how
important safety and security is to them as well as their
families.
I also feel that the
people I'm training must understand that safety and security not
only involves them but the others they work with, their
employers, and families. If an employee gets hurt that means an
employer has lost an experienced employee on that job task, and
will need to replace the employee with someone who may or may
not have the same level of experience as the hurt worker did,
and possibly creating another unsafe condition.
My
goals are simple:
 |
Present the
training so everyone in the class can understand. |
 |
I get everyone in
the class involved. |
 |
There are no
stupid questions. |
 |
Ensure everyone in
the class leaves with the knowledge of how to do their
jobs without putting themselves and their co-workers at
risk of bodily injury. When this happens we all have a
good day! |
Safety and security are
the product of
observation, awareness, communication, and training. If I can
get this implanted into my class members' heads, you will have a
safe employee!
