Our approach
+IMPAC's Workplace Risk Assessment training approach
IMPAC delivers this course as practical training that shows learners how to work through a risk assessment properly, not just how to fill in a form. The day is built around clear explanation, guided discussion, and examples that help people understand what good hazard identification, risk assessment, and control selection look like in real work.
Learners work through scenarios that reflect everyday workplace decisions, using scene-based activities to identify hazards, judge the level of risk, and choose controls that are realistic for the job. The training also gives attention to consultation and communication so the learning stays connected to how risks are discussed, reviewed, and managed on site.
