About this course
Created for employees and contractors working in Abu Dhabi, this course explains the part each person plays in a safe workplace. It focuses on the decisions an employee needs to make in an office, workshop or site rather than specialist rules for safety practitioners. Organisations should pair it with their own site induction and role-specific instruction.
