Slips, trips, and falls are no laughing matter. They're involved in most of the accidents that occur in workplaces every day. They cause 17% of disabling occupational injuries and 15% of on-the-job fatalities. But slips, trips, and falls can be prevented.

Atlantic's "Slips, Trips and Falls" program discusses the mechanics of slips, trips and falls, the types of hazards that employees are likely to encounter that lead to them, and the safe practices and equipment that they can use to stay safe on their feet.

Topics covered in these products include:

• Center of gravity and maintaining balance.
• The mechanics of trips and slips.
• Types of walking surfaces.
• Housekeeping and maintenance.
• How footwear can help to prevent falls.
• How to fall "properly".
• and more.

Using a powerful combination of audio, full-motion video, text and colorful graphics, this course from the Interactive CD-ROM Training Library provides the most cost-effective training available today. The course features platform software which installs automatically, and comprehensive user's and trainer's guides. The course takes about 45 minutes to complete (depending on the employee) and is divided into a number of logical sections so information is easily understood... and retained.

Also designed with the training manager in mind, all courses in the Interactive CD-ROM Training Library come with a complete learning management system (LMS) at no additional cost. Using this system, trainers can set up "pre" and "post" tests... establish log-in procedures... even define and set up the curriculum for various job classes. The system also allows employee performance information to be collected and organized through a powerful relational database, which can generate a number of recordkeeping and tracking reports... and has a database "import/export" feature, which permits information to be transferred to and from an external database (such as a company's personnel database and/or another learning management system).

The course is one of over 100 titles currently available in the Interactive CD-ROM Training Library. Other interactive courses on safety and regulatory compliance topics (including Spanish language courses) are currently being developed and will be available soon.

Available in English and Spanish.
