Operational Risk Management (ORM) adopts the underlying principle that employers’ legal duties as envisaged in terms of section 8 of the Occupational Health and Safety Act, 85 of 1993 is met when training and development improves individual and organizational performance and assists in achieving the businesses mission and performance goals.

John Maxwell stated that “When we train people, we focus on the job. When we develop people, we focus on the person. When we train people, we’re adding value to specific things, such as what their Job description is. When we develop people, we add value to everything. They not only become better in their jobs, they become better in life.

Employee training is a necessity for any business that wants to remain competitive in today’s marketplace. But leaders who want to make a lasting difference also recognize that training by itself is not enough. Training people is helpful for a short time, Developing people is helpful for a lifetime. And while the result of training is changed performance, the result of development is changed lives.”
