Honeywell (NYSE: HON) announced today the
2015 open enrollment Miller® fall prevention and
protection training schedule. This comprehensive offering of
fall prevention and protection classes is part of the Honeywell
Safety Institute, an initiative aimed at providing educational
tools, resources, and training programs that inspire workers to
implement good safety practices in industries around the globe.
The schedule includes fall protection, safety at heights, OSHA
and confined space training courses in more than 30 cities
throughout the U.S. and Canada, as well as courses at
state-of-the-art Honeywell training facilities in Franklin,
Pennsylvania, and Houston, Texas which feature catwalks, climbing
towers, confined space simulators, wind simulators and other
equipment to simulate hazardous work environments in a range of
industries. A complete listing of training courses is available at
http://hwll.co/millerfalltraining.
"Training is an integral part of our total solution in fall protection,
since no fall protection equipment - regardless of how effective -
can save an employee who is not properly trained in its use. To
meet this crucial requirement, Miller Training provides the
knowledge and skills necessary to achieve a safer, more productive
work environment," said Lisa Burns, technical training and
operations manager, Honeywell Safety Products.
All open enrollment training courses feature experienced
instructors, live demonstrations and hands-on training. Course
goals include enabling employees working at heights to recognize
fall hazards, evaluating the risk posed by each hazard, and
controlling the hazard through preventive or protective measures.
The sessions are further customized by location to address
site-specific variables and performance requirements of fall
prevention and protection.
