10,000 Workers in Malaysia Will Be Trained in Emergency Response for High-Risk Industries
Approximately 10,000 workers based in high-risk industries are set to receive emergency aid and safety training as part of Malaysia’s initiative to enhance workplace safety. This safety training initiative targets high-risk industries and aims to boost emergency preparedness among both employers and employees.
This is going to be a significant step in ensuring that the well-being of employees in the workplace is a priority. Training will cover CPR, wound care, and basic trauma management. It also aims to build the confidence needed to act quickly during workplace emergencies.
The programme supports the Occupational Safety and Health Act 1994 (Act 514) and reflects the government’s focus on proactive risk management. It is designed to ensure workers can respond effectively before professional medical help arrives.
By equipping workers with these life-saving skills, the government hopes to lower injury and fatality rates at work. The effort highlights that safety is a shared responsibility and a key part of Malaysia’s workplace culture.
