About the Safety Officer Training Program
Empowering Safety Officers
The 40-hour BOSH Training equips participants with the knowledge and skills to implement and oversee Occupational Safety and Health standards in their organizations. Safety Officers play a vital role in raising awareness, ensuring compliance, and preventing workplace risks in partnership with management. Upon completion of the program, participants shall be conferred an official BOSH Training certificate and thereafter duly recognized as a Level 2 Safety Officer.Â
Program Details
The training spans five days of eight-hour sessions each, or a compressed schedule over two weekends. It caters to professionals in most industries who are eager to become Level 2 Safety Officers and OSH advocates.
Meet ActiveOne Health’s First Batch of BOSH Training Graduates
A Diverse Group of Professionals
The inaugural batch included 23 participants from various disciplines, including healthcare operations, finance, commercial and corporate enabler teams. Their unique experiences enriched the learning environment and set the stage for a dynamic exchange of ideas.
Overcoming Challenges
Balancing work commitments with the training requirements was no easy task. Participants often had to juggle their professional responsibilities while staying engaged in the sessions. Their determination to complete the program, participate actively in workshops, and excel in the final post-test was nothing short of inspiring.
Feedback and Takeaways
Many participants found the training to be an eye-opener, shedding light on workplace hazards and risks they had previously overlooked. While some topics felt overwhelming, the overall experience equipped them with the knowledge and confidence to address safety concerns in their organizations.
Reflecting on the training, Christopher Resulto, OSH Supervisor at ActiveOne Health, shared:
"The participants came to realize that one's safety and health does not only apply to the workplace but to our everyday living. Some participants struggled to complete the sessions uninterrupted due to various factors, but in the end they proved to be quite active in the workshops and even excelled in the Post Test."
Christopher’s words highlight not only the dedication of the trainees but also the broader impact of the program in fostering a culture of safety that transcends workplace boundaries.
Looking Ahead
The success of this first batch of graduates is just the beginning of ActiveOne Health’s journey as an accredited Safety Officer training institution. By empowering individuals to become champions of safety and health, the organization is creating ripple effects that will benefit workplaces, communities, and everyday lives.
Congratulations to the graduates for their hard work, resilience, and commitment to making a difference. Here’s to a safer and healthier future, led by these newly trained Safety Officers!
