Abstract
Safety training programs play an effective role in reducing diseases and accidents during working. The purpose of this study was comprehensive safety training planning for the gas pipeline construction industry, and investigation of its effectiveness in a pilot project. For this purpose, in an interventional research study (before and after), a risk-based training needs assessment was performed. Afterwards, a comprehensive training program was developed and implemented based on this assessment. After 6 months of implementing this training program, its effectiveness was assessed using three questionnaires and 19 checklists. Comparison of scores before and after the training showed that the changes made in all cases were significant. Therefore, comprehensive training planning and its implementation based on the hazards of the workplace and the level of risk in the construction of pipelines play an effective role in increasing safety knowledge, perceptions, attitude and behavior of workers.
