The TWI Job Safety (JS) Poster describes the four steps of Job Safety based on the tried and tested Training Within Industry (TWI) methodology. The TWI JS program creates a simple and logical framework by which supervisors can prevent accidents from happening--by learning how to analyze the causes of accidents and eliminating them before they happen. The poster comes in two themes: color and monochrome. Formatted in PDF and in editable PPTX, the poster can be easily printed on an A3 or A4-sized paper from an office copier machine and displayed on employee workstations, or distributed together with your workshop handouts. The TWI JS Poster complements the 'TWI Program: Job Safety (JS) Training' presentation materials and the TWI JS Pocket Cards. It serves as a takeaway and summary of your occupational health and safety presentation. Contents in the TWI JS poster include: 1. What Is The TWI Job Safety Program 2. The Four Steps of Job Safety 3. How To Spot & Avoid Safety Hazards 4. Supervisor's Major Safety Responsibilities

Countermeasures
