Work out safety training hours requirement instantly with clear inputs, formula shown and shareable results.
Annual safety training demand has two parts: refresher training for the whole workforce and induction for new starters, which is far longer per head.

Total = workers x refresher hours + workers x turnover rate x induction hours
Total = workers x refresher hours + workers x turnover rate x induction hours. Annual safety training demand has two parts: refresher training for the whole workforce and induction for new starters, which is far longer per head.
