The dangers that people can face are constantly increasing. It is crucial to identify these risks in order to be prepared for any potential threat. The "risk hunt" is a fun, educational tool designed to reduce the number of accidents in the workplace.
The "risk hunt" is a training tool aimed at preventing hazards and anomalies that employees may encounter in the course of their duties. This method consists of confronting employees with situations in which they have to identify a series of risks linked to their environment and sector of activity. This improves their ability to identify critical situations and control them. The "risk hunt" is particularly well suited to companies wishing to encourage their employees to take collective action to reduce the risk of accidents. It helps to increase motivation and awareness of occupational risks. In addition, this method can help companies to strengthen their Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) training programmes, by involving employees in a stimulating activity.
It is common for employees to lack motivation in their work, particularly due to a lack of interaction with their colleagues and a routine that does not encourage personal development. The aim of gamification is to transform the working environment of employees who carry out activities in the field into a more playful context. The principle is to encourage workers to contribute to reducing the risks associated with their activities by using innovative technologies, in order to encourage them to become more involved.
Virtual reality is a powerful tool to help learners improve their skills and motivation. By allowing them to immerse themselves in simulated environments, they can concentrate more on their tasks and assimilate the necessary information more easily. What's more, they can learn at their own pace and repeat actions until they have mastered them perfectly. This also gives them greater self-confidence and increases their productivity.
Fun activities, such as risk hunts, allow employees to engage freely in the company's development and demonstrate a positive attitude. Virtual reality can also contribute to staff development, by encouraging employees and trainers to exchange feedback that will reinforce their motivation to excel in their work. Risk hunting also enables supervisors to better understand the difficulties faced by their learners and to find the right training to meet their needs.
By being immersed in a realistic environment for training, employees can develop their behavioural skills in a fun and effective way. Virtual reality activities encourage interaction and collaborative participation in team conflict resolution, brainstorming, exchanges between colleagues, etc.
Virtual reality enables employees to develop behavioural skills such as negotiation, public speaking, conflict management, crisis management, interview preparation, leadership, stress and emotion management, disability and harassment awareness, proposing interesting ideas, stimulating debate, suggesting solutions and developing risk prevention strategies.
