Melbourne (AU) / Saarbrücken (GER), August 2014 - Helping employees interpret legislation and develop sound judgment about appropriate workplace behaviour is critical to an organisation's success. Developing effective and engaging training in-house can be a challenge. To ease this burden on organisations, IMC have joined forces with their longstanding Australian partner BeyondEdge to provide two interactive eLearning workplace-behaviour modules.
Ensuring employees and managers within organisations know their responsibilities, these eLearning courses reflect current legislation, including changes that were made to Australian Work Health and Safety legislation in 2012. The online modules assist organisations to meet both compliance and onboarding priorities, while users benefit by learning crucial information in an engaging, meaningful, and personal way.
Many organisations struggle with teaching workplace-behaviour skills "... because translating policy and legislation into meaningful learning is difficult", suggests BeyondEdge Executive Producer, Duy Huynh. He continues, "That’s why we built these modules: to bring life to some very unwieldy legislation and to help organisations of all sizes address the complex Work Health and Safety laws".
The two modules, "Workplace Behaviour for Employees" and "Workplace Behaviour for Managers", immerse learners in a series of realistic workplace scenarios. At their own pace, users are guided through real-life decision making and reflection by their virtual presenter. The training program covers a variety of important workplace behaviour topics, including discrimination, sexual harassment, vilification, bullying, occupational violence, victimisation, employee grievance, and unacceptable behaviour.
“I’m excited about the difference these courses can make,” says Hayley Steer, IMC Learning Solutions Consultant. "I’m relieved to find a simple and scalable option that helps to create the behavioural and cultural changes many organisations strive to achieve".
