Objectives

Total WSH is the Singapore framework to promote worker safety, occupational health, and wellness. It is an evolution of the traditional view that worker health is only about safety at the workplace. The framework encourages companies to view worker health holistically and provides guidance on the assessment of worker’s Total WSH needs, as well as the implementation of intervention or preventive programmes. This course allows participants to deepen participants’ knowledge of Total WSH and to utilise the basic implementation considerations in employing the tools of the Singapore Assessment-Intervention-Monitoring & Evaluation (A-I-ME) methodology as part of the Total WSH framework, for the workplace. At the end of the course, participants will be able to: 1. Describe the Total WSH Framework and how it relates to the practice of worker safety, occupational health, and well-being in the workplace. 2. Employ the A-I-ME framework to implement Total WSH at the workplace. This course can be bundled with the following courses to earn a Professional Certificate in Implementing Total Workplace Safety and Health(Total WSH) in the Workplace :- * Assessment and Implementation of Occupational Health Programmes * Assessment and Implementation of Safety Programmes * Assessment of Employee Well-Being and Implementation of Behavioural Intervention Programmes * Integrating and Sustaining Total WSH at the Workplace * Management of Infectious Diseases at the Workplace
