Orlando, FL � April 2012 / Hospitality 1ST / The American Hotel & Lodging Educational Institute (EI) has added several DVD titles from Safety Source Productions to its line-up of hospitality risk management training resources.

Based in Southern California, Safety Source Productions delivers video training programs, e-learning, and interactive training for dozens of industries, including hospitality.

The DVDs, which are available in English and Spanish versions, focus on accident prevention and hospitality safety. They include:

  • Hospitality Fire Prevention: Few things can be more terrifying and catastrophic than a fire in a hotel. That is why training and education are so important. This video looks at ways fires can be prevented and covers the basics of fire prevention, conditions that contribute to fires and steps employees can take to minimize the risk of a potential fire. Effective fire prevention demands the participation and cooperation of everyone on the staff and this video is a great way to start.
  • Hazard Communication: Chemicals can be found in nearly every area of your property. OSHA mandates that all employees be trained in the safe use, storage and handling of these materials. This video details material safety data sheets, container labeling and basic chemical safety.
  • Methamphetamines: Too Dangerous to Ignore: This program was developed to educate your associates about the dangers of meth and the devastating effects it has on lives, jobs and property. Topics include: how to spot potential problems, security tips to prevent risk, and what to do if a lab is discovered.
  • Preventing Slips & Falls: Slips and falls can happen to almost anyone on your property: guests, bell staff, front desk staff, housekeeping, maintenance, management and others. These unfortunate events can also happen almost anywhere on your property: parking lots, the lobby, stairs, the kitchen, bathrooms and conference facilities. This video takes a look at several different scenarios and examines what circumstances or conditions contributed to each incident, employee behavior that contributed to each incident and what steps can be taken to prevent future similar occurrences.
  • Preventing Work-Related Burn Injuries in Restaurants: The food service industry experiences the highest number of burns of any employment sector, about 12,000 each year. The industry employs approximately 6.5 million workers in the United States each year; it also comprises one of the largest groups of workers injured on the job in the United States. These injuries and illnesses are costly and damaging, both for the employee and for the individual restaurant owner. Job injuries and illnesses contribute to absenteeism, light duty assignments or other work restrictions, high turnover, and higher workers� compensation costs.
  • Restaurant Hazard Communication: Chemicals can be found in nearly every area of your restaurant. OSHA mandates that all employees be trained in the safe use, storage and handling of these materials. This video details material safety data sheets, container labeling and basic chemical safety.
