The course aims to raise awareness about industrial accidents in order to strengthen the capacity of government, industry and civil society representatives. With an improved understanding of what constitutes an 'industrial accident', participants will be better able to prevent, prepare and respond to these types of incidents. By taking the course, participants will also gain an understanding of when countries should ask and receive international assistance in preparation for or in response to an industrial accident.

The course is available in English, French, Russian and Chinese. Please allow at least three hours for completion. While registration is required, this course is offered free of charge.

If you have any questions and/or problems accessing the course, please contact us at ochaunep@un.org.
