1.

Behaviourist Perspective - According to behaviourists, training can increase the


performance of desired behaviours by following those actions with rewards.
2. ORGANIZATIONAL EVALUATION - Workers' compensation claims and costs-
Ultimately, health and safety training programs should result in decreased resort to
workers' compensation programs, as successful training programs should decrease
incident and injury rates.
3. The training evaluator will want to compare the organization's performance after the
training program with its performance before training.
4. individual assessment is to identify the method of assessment. Common needs
assessment techniques include observation, work samples, and tests
5. TRAINING DESIGN AND DELIVERY: Following the needs analysis, an informed
decision can be made about the potential effectiveness of training as an option for
addressing health and safety concerns. If training has a role to play in the solution to a
health and safety problem, several decisions must now be made. These decisions
involve translating what was learned from the needs assessment into the actual
training initiative. Some of the pertinent decisions include the following:1. What are
the objectives for training?
6. Kirkpatrick's hierarchical model-a frequently used training
evaluation model-suggests that there are four important measures that provide insight
into the effectiveness of a training program, as follow:26
1. Did the trainees have positive reactions to the training?
2. Did the trainees learn the material covered in the training?
3. Did the trainees apply what they learned in training and realize a change in
their work behaviour?
4. Did the organization see positive organizational results following training?
7. Experiential learning – Roleplay
8. Social Learning – Attention, Memory, Motor control, Motivation
9. From a health and safety perspective, experiential learning approaches mean that
trainees should engage in active learning environments that incorporate the training
content into their experiences.
10. Utility reactions incorporate the trainees' perceptions of the usefulness of the program.
11. On-the-job behaviour can be assessed using self-report inventories (behavioural
inventory) in which trainees rate their own behaviour or by having supervisors
complete a report on trainees' actions when performing the task in question
12. Several factors, however, limit the reliability and utility of incident and fatality
measures for organizational research and practice. Logs of lost-time injuries
maintained by government agencies actually underrepresent the magnitude of these
incidents.
13. The traditional focus on straight recall of verbal knowledge is increasingly shifting
toward a focus on "procedural understanding" of the material presented, including
questions about why things work in particular ways.
