Frequently asked questions

Simply put, training in manufacturing is more critical now than ever before. In order to keep up with the changing industry, frontline workers need to be constantly learning new skills. This may involve learning how to operate new machines, work with different materials, or follow new safety protocols. Personal protective equipment and common sense are obviously critical in high-risk environments, but high-quality training can also be the difference between a life and death situation.
Manufacturing training can involve a variety of different topics. In addition to learning new skills, workers will also need to receive mandatory safety training. This is especially important for high-risk environments, such as manufacturing. Manufacturing training doesn’t just apply to new employees either. Even longtime workers in the manufacturing industry need to keep up with the latest changes and receive refresher training. As technologies and methods evolve, so must the workers who use them. If you're looking for a quick way of developing and deploying a training programme for staff, look no further than iHASCO!
Safety training is essential in any industry, but it’s especially critical in manufacturing. After all, there are a lot of potential hazards in a factory setting, from hazardous materials to heavy equipment. This is why it’s so vital to make safety training a priority in your workplace. These training topics will include (but are not limited to): Machine Guarding, Lockout/Tagout, Hazard Communication, Respiratory Protection, Wiring and Electrical Safety, Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), Working at Height, Conveyor Safety, Abrasive Wheel Safety, COSHH and many more.
Working in a manufacturing plant can be dangerous. There are many moving parts and machines, and if you're not careful, you could easily get hurt, here are some ways to improve health and safety within your manufacturing plant; Ensure employees are trained in how to use the machines and equipment. Create a safety plan and make sure that all employees are familiar with it. Make sure that the plant is clean and organised, so there's less of a chance of someone slipping and injuring themselves. Install safety guards on all of the machines. Inspect the machines regularly to make sure that they're in good working condition. Provide personal protective equipment for all employees, such as gloves, goggles, and earplugs. Make sure that there is adequate ventilation in the plant so that employees don't become overwhelmed by fumes or dust. Encourage employees to report any safety hazards that they see in the plant.
