Accountability for results

Key to Kairros’ success in delivery of training programs, is our accountability to results and therefore, return on investment.

Kairros’ training programs are measured according to Kirkpatrick’s Four Level Training Evaluation Model. The four levels are: reaction, learning, behaviour and results.

Each of these aspects is measured in order to both ensure effective change has been elicited, as well as to improve future learning processes of the workforce.

Computer-based work can have a significant impact on health, including predisposition to overuse injuries such as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Ergonomic adjustment of a workstation can therefore significantly reduce the risk and impact of injury.

Education will focus on the following:

  • How to recognise risk factors for musculoskeletal disorders and ergonomic issues in the work environment
  • How to recognise signs and symptoms of musculoskeletal disorders relevant to the type of work conducted in the office space
  • Reporting processes for risk factors and musculoskeletal disorders
  • How to adjust ergonomic furnishings
  • The process for employees to request ergonomic furnishings
  • Appropriate posture and form

Kairros will also provide each staff member with an Ergonomic Education pack, which will information on all topics discussed.

  • Time: 1-2 hours
  • Who’ll benefit: all staff who work in an office environment
  • Outcomes: minimised risk of injury in office environments

“Our Kairros consultant was a fantastic trainer and overall received an exceptional response from our staff who participated in our manual handling training. From the moment we scheduled our course, the team at Kairros were really helpful and willing to go above and beyond. As a result of our successful training sessions, we’ve applied the Kairros safe, stretching exercise guide for all staff to refer to across our club outlets. We would definitely recommend appointing Kairros for all your work, health and safety related training needs.”
