Galaxy Entertainment Group (GEG) recently invited the Macau Productivity and Technology Transfer Centre (CPTTM) to hold an “Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) Training Technique Course.
As part of the “GEG Cotai New Development Occupational Health & Safety Promotion Series”, the training course targets safety supervisors and aims at reinforcing their OSH knowledge and improving their training skills so that they can effectively deliver key OSH messages to fellow construction workers, build a safe and healthy workplace, and cultivate OSH training talents for the construction industry.
Twenty safety supervisors from GEG’s project development team, main contractors and their sub-contractors attended the training. All of the participants were qualified safety supervisors and have obtained certification from the Labour Affairs Bureau (DSAL).
During the training, CPTTM’s trainer introduced and promoted Macau’s OSH regulations, and gave an in-depth explanation of the different training skills such as course planning, application and evaluation that the participants can use to reinforce their OSH knowledge and equip themselves to deliver future OSH training to other construction workers.
In addition, the training also included group discussions and practice sessions where participants were invited to practise their teaching, communication and expressions on one another so as to build their confidence.
Among the participants in the training course is GEG Construction Safety of Project Development Assistant Project Manager Victor Cham, who said that the course has helped them better understand how to deliver OSH messages to construction workers more effectively based on their daily operations, the working environment, and the different types of project work that is being carried out so that their working partners can learn more efficiently, and we can work together to improve the overall health and safety in the workplace, which he finds very helpful. – gegpr
