Training employees about workplace safety has become increasingly difficult as attention spans continue to shorten. Employers struggle to inform employees properly about the dangers faced in their work environment.

To overcome these challenges, employers should prioritize safety, ensure management support, involve employees in the training process, use engaging training methods and reinforce safety principles regularly. Additionally, fostering a positive safety culture can significantly improve employee buy-in and commitment to workplace safety.
