Results:
These results are from the Before-After analysis
Better safety and health at the work place:
Improvements related to material storage and handling received the highest degree of realisation. 1/3 of participants could not complete planned improvements because of their cost.
On average participants realized 3 successful improvements with a success rate of above 80% (80% reported good or above working conditions only two-third of them did so at baseline). These are directly correlated with client’s motivation captured in the number of training modules the client willingly took.
Higher levels of production:
Participants in the training enjoy a higher production level than the whole sample
Positive and significant link between better work environment and level of production
