BACKGROUND
Logging is recognized as one of the most dangerous industries in the United States (US), ranking among those with the highest occupational injury and fatality rates. Although logging operations in the Southeastern US have lower rates of injuries and fatalities compared to other regions of the US, due in part to the use of large machinery to fell timber as opposed to chainsaw felling, safety hazards continue to persist. The hazards present in the logging cut sites in which loggers operate may result in worker injury, illness, or fatality. Our objective was to develop, deliver, and evaluate a safety management and leadership training among logging contractors and supervisors using mobile tablets as a personal learning environment.
METHODS
A safety leadership and management training vignette was developed based on previously collected focus group needs assessment data. A non-random sample of 31 male logging supervisors received the safety leadership and management training on a mobile tablet. Kirkpatrick Levels 1, 2, and 3 training effectiveness evaluations were performed.
RESULTS
A statistically significant large effect size suggests safety knowledge was gained among training participants when comparing post-test scores to pre-test scores (Level-2). Participants rated their training experience favorably (Level-1), and applied knowledge gained from the training throughout their weekly work activities three months after training (Level-3).
CONCLUSION
Our findings suggest the utilization of mobile learning techniques can be an effective means to deliver safety management and leadership training content to logging contractors and supervisors. Future trainings should be linguistically and literacy-level appropriate, as well as comprehensive in nature, including meaningful and relevant content. Our observations support the use of mobile devices as just one component of a more comprehensive health and safety management program for workers in the logging industry.
背景
伐木在美国被认为是最危险的行业之一，其职业伤害和死亡率位居前列。尽管美国东南部的伐木作业与美国其他地区相比，受伤和死亡的比率较低，部分原因是使用大型机械伐木而不是使用链锯伐木，但安全隐患仍然存在。伐木工人在伐木现场作业时存在的危险可能导致工人受伤、生病或死亡。我们的目标是使用移动平板电脑作为个人学习环境，为伐木承包商和主管人员开发、提供和评估安全管理和领导力培训。
方法
根据之前收集的焦点小组需求评估数据，开发了一个安全领导力和管理培训案例。对 31 名男性伐木主管进行了移动平板电脑上的安全领导力和管理培训，他们是非随机抽样的。进行了柯克帕特里克 1 级、2 级和 3 级培训效果评估。
结果
统计学上显著的大效应量表明，与前测相比，培训参与者在安全知识方面有所提高（2 级）。参与者对他们的培训体验评价良好（1 级），并在培训三个月后将培训中获得的知识应用于他们每周的工作活动中（3 级）。
结论
我们的研究结果表明，移动学习技术可以作为向伐木承包商和主管人员提供安全管理和领导力培训内容的有效手段。未来的培训应该在语言和读写水平上是适当的，并且具有全面性，包括有意义和相关的内容。我们的观察结果支持将移动设备用作伐木工人健康和安全管理计划的一个组成部分。
