Hazard identification is the first step of risk control—and the easiest way to prevent incidents before they happen. In this HSEdx micro-course, learners will understand what hazards are, how they differ from risks, and how to systematically spot hazards during routine work. Using simple techniques and real workplace examples, the course explains common hazard types—such as slips, trips, falling objects, unsafe manual handling, electrical risks, chemical exposure, and poor housekeeping—and how to report hazards clearly so corrective action can happen quickly. Ideal for workers and supervisors, this course strengthens day-to-day safety awareness and supports a proactive reporting culture.
Self Paced courses are thoughtfully curated learning programs that allow participants to progress at their own speed. These courses include pre-recorded lectures, learning materials, and assessments designed to deliver consistent and industry-relevant knowledge without the need for live instruction.
