TRAINING MATRIX
Employee training is a key component of any safety program. The matrix provides guidance for SKC Engineers’ supervisors to identify
common employee training requirements. The matrix does not include every training topic needed. Keep in mind that an employee
must have training to do their job safely. Therefore, if they have duties that are potentially hazardous supervisors must ensure that
appropriate information has been provided. Any time the duties, equipment and/or processes change, the employee must receive
updated training. Training must be documented and records must be kept for a minimum of three years.

Supervisors should ensure that all employees receive general and job-specific training prior to initial or new job assignments. In
addition, training is required:
 whenever new substances, processes, procedures or equipment are introduced to the workplace which may create new hazards.
 when new or previously unrecognized hazards are introduced into the work environment or brought to a supervisor's attention
 when an employee cannot demonstrate adequate understanding of the safety requirements of a task
All training must be documented and kept in department files for a minimum of three years.
