Use professional safety quizzes to help employees retain the training
In 2014, 3739 fatal work-related accidents happened in the EU. Many of those could have been prevented by informing employees of the dangers and hazards involved in their line of work. Ideally, this is done in a one or more training sessions.
Making sure that employees retain the knowledge they acquired during a training session is as important as the training itself. Some studies report that after just one week the average employee has retained only 80% of what they were taught. That rate falls steadily until, months later, as little as 10 to 20% remains.
That’s where a safety quiz comes in.
Establishing a “Quiz Culture” can slow these rates between training sessions immensely. This can be combined with interactive solutions like personalized emails after certain periods of time, giving access to new course-subjects, rewarding good grades with an incentive, etc…
Safety quizzes are supplementary and are not meant as a replacement for required, on-site workplace training.
List of safety quiz topics
As can be seen in the example above, the feedback form should at least include the following information:
- Back safety quiz
- Confined space quiz
- Earthquake safety quiz
- Fall protection quiz
- Fire safety quiz
- First aid quiz
- Forklift safety quiz
- Food safety quiz
- GHS quiz (Globally Harmonized System)
- Hazard communication quiz
- Personal protective equipment quiz
- STD quiz for high school students
- Welding safety quiz
It is important that the feedback details can be collected efficiently and analyzed objectively and professionally to make meaningful conclusions. Using feedback surveys is the best way to do this. Use Zapier to move results between your web apps automatically.
Turn safety quizzes into an e-learning environment with campaigns
This feature in the quiz software allows employees to use the same, personal URL to take a series of quizzes that:
- Ask employees to recall information they learned during pieces of training
- Ensure employees know what they need to fulfill their daily professional tasks
- Entertain employees with photos, videos and audio embedded in questions
- Allow quizzes to be taken on any mobile device, without the need to install an app
- Create incentives with digital scratch cards, slot machines and other competitive elements
- Let employees see all of their quiz scores in real time with an animated gauge
- Allow employees to take quizzes in different languages
- Enable teachers, trainers or HR and management to see who took which quizzes, and how they scored
- Let trainers adapt future materials based on collective quiz result

5 effective tips to make your safety quizzes a success
Test before, during and after the training experience to get a clear view of progress.
Allow room for feedback with a short survey within your training campaign. Your employees often have very valuable insights!
Ask short questions and spread them over time: limit your questions to 4 or 5 to stimulate fast and thought-through answers.
People try harder when it’s a competition. Take advantage of the competitive spirit of your trainees by adding a scoreboard to the quiz. Increase this even more by making the scores shareable or combine it with a team-incentive.
Personalize each quiz: Safety quizzes should not have a “one size fits all” approach. In fact, every employee should be given a personalized interactive safety quiz based on their needs and position within the company.
