Gress Safety Training

Gress has a 10 year track record of meeting industry scheduling demands.
We effectively deliver training programs that engage employees.

Gress safety training is intended for the entirety of the facility and is based on the concept of understanding, examining, and improving systems of safety. Systems of Safety focus on what causes or allows a safety and health problem to exist at a workplace with an eye towards identifying and remediating problems rather than affixing blame. We are not concerned with, and we do not focus on what a worker, supervisor or a manager did wrong. We look at what; not who caused a near miss, incident or accident.

Safety Systems training provides a way for the participants to identify flaws and safety problems that exist and create an overall safety awareness greater than just the subject matter we are addressing. The training provides the theoretical and practical resources that allow attendees to potentially prevent occupational health and safety injuries by exploring the hierarchy of safety systems.

We have delivered thousands of hours of safety training to thousands of employees using the Small Group Activity Method (SGAM) of training. SGAM is a curriculum based, learner-centered peer training. It values the insights, understanding and institutional knowledge of the individual, and respects this knowledge as an integral part of the training and works to strengthen labor management relationships.

By providing awareness training in this manner we effectively work to instill a “systems of safety” approach to understanding hazards and to systematically prevent accidents and injuries. Systems of safety focuses on what causes or allows a safety and health problem to exist at a workplace with an eye towards identifying and eliminating problems or remediating them if their elimination is not possible.
