Detailed Description

India is a country that was known for agriculture, but after industrial development, maximum employment depends on industries, and industries depend on manpower. But the manpower that is required for the jobs also requires proper education. Accidents are more likely if proper safety education and training are not provided. Government industrial organisations and public-sector companies are making lots of effort to minimise occupational accidents. But existing awareness materials such as safety posters, stickers, banners, and informative messages are not as effective. Technology has brought enough advancement into the life of the common man. One of the major benefits of information technology is computer graphic animation. The industrial environment is dangerous, and safety is a major concern. Animation generated information can explain scenarios before and after accidents and prevent employees from experiencing similar incidents in the future. Animation can help to understand safe procedures for handling hazards operation Education and training are the keys to maintaining a healthy atmosphere at any hazardous workplace. There are many ways to educate workers in the workplace, such as the display of safety posters, safety messages at factory entrances, canteens, work floors, and worker gathering areas. It’s important that workers fully understand the potential health effects that may occur after a long period of time. Maintaining safety awareness among workers is the key to controlling accidents at the workplace. Safety awareness is critical in many hazardous work environments.
