    This document discusses two scenarios regarding whether an employee would be considered a new worker requiring safety training. For the first scenario, the document concludes that an employee who is relocated to a new department within the same company would be considered a new worker since the hazards of the new position could be different, requiring safety orientation and training. For the second scenario, the document determines that an employee who leaves a company for a few months but is rehired for the exact same job position would not need to undergo the full new worker training since the job itself did not change.

    ACTIVITY 8 | OLCBHRM01

    1. If an employee - who has worked for a company for many years – is


    relocated to a different department, are they considered a new
    worker, and should they have to undergo safety orientation and safe
    work procedure training again, and why?
    - This is considered a new worker although it had worked in the
    same company for a few years it had changed to a new position of the
    company and it now had knowledge regarding the positions.
    By definition, a new worker is any worker who is, "affected by a change
    in the hazards of a workplace or relocated to a new workplace if the
    hazards in that workplace are different from the hazards in the
    worker's previous workplace." That is why they need to undergo safety
    orientation and safe work procedure training about the company for
    him/ her to know the department's policies. The working environment
    or the new workplace that they have in the relocated department is
    different from the workplace that he/she experienced before. Also,
    having training again will help the individual to build a relationship
    since he/she is relocated to a new department and not close to the
    employee that he/she was going to.

    2. If you leave a company, and a few months


    later get re-hired for the exact same job position, are you considered a new
    worker, and what type of training should follow?
    - If the job positions you are returning to have not changed at all since you left, you
    would not be considered a new worker in this case. Although you had to leave your
    company for a few months, if the job positions that had to return to did not change at
    all from the date you leave and back, you are not considered a new worker. The
    training that should be followed will be the previous company training programs such
    as the customer service training program, products and service knowledge training,
    and others. I am not considered a new worker if I work. Unless I worked in the
    company for less than a year. I should not have to go through the procedures or
    training as the new hires because I was able to do my job before I came back to the
    company. If any the company has a new policy, I will just follow it. Because I only
    spent a few months with the company I joined before and for me, I still must go
    through training so that I can be more flexible in the policies of the company I joined.
