Why take a construction quiz

Working in the construction industry can be dangerous, and it’s important that your workers are aware of the risks associated with the job. Falls are the leading cause of death in the construction industry, and workers need to be thoroughly trained in how to prevent falls and what to do if they do fall. In addition to falls, construction workers are also at risk of being struck by objects, electrocuted, and caught in between objects. That’s why we’ve put together this quiz on construction safety. This quiz will help to ensure that your workers are familiar with the common dangers associated with construction work and know how to stay safe on the job.

Deploy a construction quiz to your team

With this construction quiz, you can identify and close knowledge gaps so your workers can easily recall how to protect themselves when working with heavy machinery, power tools, and other equipment. This knowledge is critical for protecting the safety and health of your workers, as it teaches them how to safely work with individuals who may be injured on the job. Not only is this a risk to your workers, it’s also important to ensure that your organization is compliant with government regulations. With regular checks, your team will be more confident with how to handle equipment and situations that may be an increased risk of injury. Plus, you’ll also get access to your team’s results so you can understand individual workers’ knowledge gaps, as well as overall performance once the quiz is complete. For teams that require more regular refresher training, you’ll also have the option to deliver the construction quiz to your learners in bite-sized chunks, at regular intervals. This allows your team to reinforce their knowledge at their own pace, making them more likely to recall and implement what they learned sooner than if they were to have completed a one-off training program. So, don’t delay! Quiz your team for free today.
