We will be adding more topics all along, but give these a try:
Back Safety Training Program (part of the 5 in 1 Avitus Refresher Series)
This course helps participants understand why back injuries occur and how to prevent them. Occupational Athletics is introduced, making this training much more than the typical "just lift with your legs" format. While we often associate lifting in industrial or warehouse environments, this training has become very popular with office and retail businesses.
Bloodborne Pathogens-Reducing the Risk of Occupational Transmission
Often, we only associate this topic with the Medical Arts, but more employers outside of health-related industries are concerned about Bloodborne Pathogens. Every business, regardless of the type of work environment can benefit from this important training.

Fire Safety and Portable Fire Extinguisher Training (part of the 5 in 1 Avitus Refresher Series)
How often do you use a fire extinguisher? When a fire occurs is not the ideal time to learn how to properly put out a fire. This course covers the different type of extinguishers, the use and proper maintenance, and the different type of fires that can occur. Fire prevention is also covered.
Forklift Safety Basics for General Industry
This course gives the employee a fantastic classroom training for safely operating a forklift. While this class will not qualify you for licensing, it will give the participant a basic understanding of forklift safety. This is a great refresher course for licensed forklift operators to take on a regular basis just to remind them of the respect this piece of equipment requires.
Hazard Communication Standard Training (part of the 5 in 1 Avitus Refresher Series)
Chemicals are in every workplace. Safe work procedures, Material Safety Data Sheets, and Labeling are covered in this training. This course helps prevent immediate injury as well as longterm problems due to exposure to a hazardous chemical.
Identifying Strain and Exertion Exposures
According to the National Safety Council, 90% of all accidents can be arrtibuted to unsafe acts or behaviors. This course teaches owners and managers how to identify hazards and exposures in the workplace so they can take corrective actions BEFORE an injury occurs.
Machine Guarding-Protecting Employees from Injuries
If you have machinery in your work environment, this course is extremely important. This course should be taken on a regular basis by employees who work with machinery to remind them of the safety precautions necessary to prevent injury.
Safety Pays for Life (part of the 5 in 1 Avitus Refresher Series)
A great reminder of how everyone wins when you have a safe work environment. When an injury occurs, the impact ripples through the company and the employee's family. The cost goes much deeper than money. This is a good course to watch after a "near miss" occurs in the workplace.
Service Recovery
Handling unhappy customers is never easy. These difficult situations can become perfect opportunities to turn the situation around and not just save a customer, but make them glad they are your customer. This short, interactive training is helpful for any employee and manager that may want to enhance their customer service skills.
