The Oregon Institute of Occupational Health Sciences is committed to sharing evidence-based best practices to assist employers, occupational health practitioners, human resources professionals, and others with roles in occupational health and safety. These actionable and educational tools are reviewed and highly recommended by scientists and experts to help organizations and businesses across industries enhance, improve, and create a workplace culture of safety, health, and well-being. We do so by providing web-based, self-paced training modules and printable guides and tools that support workplace safety discussions.

Supportive Workplaces online training

The Supportive Workplaces website is home to the Institute’s publicly accessible suite of evidence-based, online training programs that support safety, health, and well-being through interventions designed to increase employee-supportive behaviors. Our programs offer a computer-based training module followed by behavioral reinforcement tools and templates.
