Manual Handling
Manual Handling is the leading cause of workplace injuries and compensation claims, directly responsible for over a third of reported injuries at work. It’s not surprising then that manual handling accidents cost the U.S, U.K and Australia over $50 billion each year. In some cases, prolonged injuries stemming from poor manual handling techniques can have life-changing ramifications. Next World’s VR Manual Handling Learning Experience is designed to teach your employees the best and safest techniques for lifting heavy objects. Employees will study the Hierarchy of Control system and understand how to implement measures from it to improve a worksite in action.
Our VR Learning Experiences are built from the ground up to offer the most immersive training environment possible. Because of this deep user immersion, VR training has been proven to result in much higher retention rate – up to 80% one year after training, compared to just 20% from traditional training methods.
Each of our Learning Experiences has a unique gamification system in place, allowing us to engage the user in the training requirements. We use a combination of points and quizzes to test and understand any shortfalls in the users’ knowledge. This method of gamification learning achieves on average assessment scores of 93%.
In addition to providing an immersive and engaging environment, our VR Learning Experiences offer the safest way to train employees in high danger scenarios. You will never need to worry about any injuries to new or under skilled employees during the training process.
