We appreciate your commitment to creating a safer, more respectful workplace for all. Let’s get started.
Module One – Understanding Mental Health and Psychological Safety
The video in this section is a quick explanation to your online course, which will summarize the layout of Modules, Lessons, and Quizzes. You only need to watch this video once during the course.
Module One – Fundamentals of Workplace Inspections
This foundational module introduces participants to the purpose, legal context, and practical value of workplace inspections as a cornerstone of an effective occupational health and safety (OHS) program. Through engaging video-based lessons, learners will understand how systematic inspections prevent incidents, verify compliance, and strengthen a proactive safety culture across all levels of an organization.
From understanding why inspections matter to learning how to plan, prepare, and organize inspection teams, participants will gain the core knowledge required to implement inspection programs that meet both legal and operational standards. The lessons combine real-world examples, visual storytelling, and reflective exercises to connect inspection principles with everyday work practices.
Module Two – Conducting Effective Inspections
The video in this section is a quick explanation to your online course, which will summarize the layout of Modules, Lessons, and Quizzes. You only need to watch this video once during the course.
Module Two – Conducting Effective Inspections
Module 2 takes learners from “knowing what an inspection is” to actually doing it well in the field. The module focuses on how to perform structured, credible workplace inspections that go beyond checklist-ticking and actually find, prioritize, and communicate real hazards. Using video-based training with narration, visuals, and reflection prompts, learners are guided through the full inspection cycle: entering the work area safely, observing work in real time, engaging with workers and supervisors, recognizing deficiencies, and turning their observations into clear, actionable reports.
Module Three – Specialized Inspections
The video in this section is a quick explanation to your online course, which will summarize the layout of Modules, Lessons, and Quizzes. You only need to watch this video once during the course.
Module Three – Specialized Inspections
Module 3 shifts from general inspection techniques to targeted, specialized inspections in key risk areas of the workplace. Building on the field skills developed in earlier modules, this section shows learners how to adapt inspection methods to different facility zones and hazard profiles—such as mechanical rooms, production areas, offices, chemical storage, outdoor yards, and loading docks. Rather than treating all spaces the same, participants learn how each zone has its own “red flags,” inspection focus points, and documentation needs. The module uses visuals and real-world examples to show what to look for in structural conditions, fire and life safety systems, electrical and mechanical rooms, housekeeping and storage, exits and egress routes, and exterior areas exposed to weather and vehicle traffic.
Module Four – Follow-Up, Continuous Improvement and Program Integration
The video in this section is a quick explanation to your online course, which will summarize the layout of Modules, Lessons, and Quizzes. You only need to watch this video once during the course.
Module Four – Follow-Up, Continuous Improvement and Program Integration
Module Four focuses on what happens after the inspection – turning observations into action, learning, and real change in the safety management system. Instead of treating inspections as one-off events or “checklist exercises,” this module shows learners how follow-up, tracking, and communication close the loop and demonstrate due diligence. Participants are introduced to the full corrective action cycle: assigning responsibility, setting deadlines, verifying completion, and documenting results in a way that stands up to regulatory scrutiny, internal audits, and client expectations.
