The modular lessons cover three primary areas: core lessons, risk or issue-based lessons, and wellbeing + growth lessons.
Core Lessons: address fundamental issues and risks that are faced across industries and geographies. Workers and managers are provided with a basic understanding and awareness of these issues to recognize, report, and provide feedback for a better work environment.
Risk or Issue-Based Lessons: address potential risks and specific challenges in a particular situation, industry, geography, or commodity. These lessons equip workers and management with the necessary knowledge to ensure workers have the knowledge + tools they need for a safe working environment.
Wellbeing + Growth: designed to support holistic employee development, exploring topics related to personal growth, career development, and work-life balance to help workers become more productive and satisfied at their workplace.
Lessons are available for both workers and managers. eLearning lessons for workers provide a basic understanding of rights + responsibilities, awareness of the specific risks or issues they need to be aware of, and various self-care skills. While the lessons for managers provide insights into fostering a supportive work environment, recognizing issues, and promoting open communications.
