Office Hazards
It’s imperative that businesses consider the safety and well-being of all employees, not just those operating in high-risk scenarios. Although office workers generally face lower daily risks than their on-site colleagues, they can and do face hazards that can cause serious injuries if not properly managed. Next World’s Office Hazards is an all-in-one safety training experience that will train and up-skill participants giving them knowledge to detect and prevent common office hazards. The experience drops users in an immersive office environment and walks them through interactive scenarios in which they access hazards and utilise the Hierarchy of Control and Risk Assessment Matrix to suggest control measures.
Learning Outcomes
The central focus of this course is to teach employees how to identify and implement control measures for common office hazards.
- Recognise potential hazards such as unsafe working conditions, improper equipment use, tripping hazards, electrical hazards, falling objects, ergonomic strains, poor sanitation practices, noise pollution, temperature-related stress, and lack of emergency preparedness.
- Learn how to inspect work areas for hazards, use cameras to document and report hazards, and make informed judgments on whether a situation is safe or hazardous based on the information provided.
- Gain knowledge of best practices to mitigate office hazards, including proper equipment usage, maintaining clear workstations and walkways, electrical safety, ergonomic practices, sanitation protocols, ventilation management, noise control, temperature regulation, and emergency procedures.
- Develop a proactive mindset towards workplace safety, emphasising the importance of hazard identification, reporting, and taking appropriate actions to ensure a safe work environment. Understand the potential consequences of ignoring hazards and the impact on their own well-being and that of their colleagues.

Why Choose Immersive Learning?
Our VR training courses are built from the ground up to offer the most immersive training experience possible. Because of this deep user immersion, VR training has been proven to result in much higher retention rates – up to 80% one year after training, compared to just 20% from traditional training methods.
Immersive learning helps build confidence in trainees abilities and prepares them for real-world situations by allowing them to practice and test their skills in challenging scenarios. A recent PwC study found VR training increased the confidence of participants by 275%.
In addition to providing an immersive and engaging training environment, VR allows trainees to experience the consequences of poor safety while they train and practice their skills in high danger scenarios without any of the normal risks or costs.
