Enhanced Safety Training with Customized Animated Videos on Technical Topics like Workplace Hazards, Precautions, and Safety Culture for a Safer Workplace

The training sessions proved to be time-consuming and cumbersome, leading to boredom among the trainees and resulting in partial attention towards the sessions.

Despite the comprehensive inclusion of details and images in the lectures and presentations tailored to the target audience, they did not successfully convey the severity of potential mishaps.

The intended movie was to be disseminated widely across India, necessitating communication in local (native) languages to ensure comprehension among diverse workforces.

The prevailing practice involved a lengthy 6-hour induction using photos and PowerPoint presentations, which required qualified trainers to convey the message effectively to the audience.

However, it was observed that the induction program had become redundant and tedious, contributing to audience disengagement and negligence. Additionally, a notable cultural divide existed in adopting global best practices for safety, resulting in a high level of risk tolerance, increased rates of injuries, and heightened severity due to the hazardous nature of the work environment.

TECH EHS’ EHS experts immediately got involved in delivering the Electrical Safety Induction to the workforce working on cell sites. This included a detailed study of requirements, analysis of EHS data, and preparation of a detailed script to achieve the targets.

A comprehensive understanding of an incident at the site resulting in worker injuries was established. Upon review of the prevailing presentation, clear areas were identified for customization, which could be effectively communicated through animation.

A technical diagram, deemed crucial, was prioritized for solid communication. Emphasis was placed on adhering to the permit process for task execution at cell sites and general safety guidelines for individuals working alone at these sites.

Critical information about working alone, working in adverse weather conditions, and ensuring adequate earthing was highlighted. The induction program was streamlined from 45 minutes to an hour, significantly reducing the organization’s time, resource, and cost requirements.

Producing movies in local (native) languages facilitated easier communication with audiences. Incorporating shocking audio-visual elements, particularly of incidents, generated a lasting impact on the workforce, enhancing awareness and understanding of the events.

As a result, the audience grasped the severity of the incidents more readily, leading to prolonged retention of the information in their minds.
