How to plan a Safety Day with VR

Make your Safety Day or HSE event hands-on with virtual reality.

  • Hands only
  • 2 × 2 m space

A Safety Day people remember

Bring VR training to your company’s Safety Day or HSE event. Employees practice first aid, fire safety and emergency response in realistic simulations, and have fun doing it.

Want us to handle the equipment? See our Safety Day offer: a shipped VR kit or a session run on site by our specialist.

Traditional safety events rarely leave an impression

Without VR

  • Presentations and classroom activities feel monotonous.
  • Employees disengage and forget key safety knowledge.
  • Hands-on drills are costly, hard to organize and sometimes dangerous.
  • Training that is realistic, engaging and safe at once is hard to offer.

With EHS VR

  • Realistic crisis situations: a fire, first aid, an evacuation.
  • No complex preparations: all you need is VR headsets.
  • Game-like elements get everyone involved, and people remember more.
  • Fewer external trainers, venues and drill equipment, so costs stay down.
  • Results in real time, with immediate feedback for each participant.

How to organize it

VR lets people practice procedures hands-on, in a realistic but safe environment. Here is what you need to run it in your organization.

  • Easy setup

    All you need is VR headsets and a subscription to our apps. Each package gives unlimited access to its training modules. The apps run on Meta Quest headsets; selected apps also run on Pico and HTC.

  • Hands-on learning

    Employees train in realistic scenarios with their own hands, no controllers needed. The apps work offline, except SAMPLE AI, which needs an internet connection for its AI-driven conversation.

  • Indoors or outdoors

    Each participant needs about 2 × 2 m of free space. Several trainees can share one headset by taking turns, while the others follow the session on a shared screen.

  • How many headsets you need

    We recommend one headset per 4–5 participants trained on the same day. If employees rotate over a longer period, 1–2 headsets are enough. Extra batteries and straps are available for longer sessions.

  • Trackable progress

    Follow each employee’s results and progress, and see where people need more practice.

  • Customizable and cost-effective

    VR reduces the need for external trainers, physical setups and complex logistics. Modules can be tailored to your industry and to specific safety and operational needs.

Other use cases

  • An employee participating in health and safety training through VR technology

    Refresher training

    Periodic OHS refresher training that engages employees, can run at any time and documents results.

  • An employee undergoing on-the-job training using VR technology

    On-the-job training

    Practical job training in VR: machine operation, emergency procedures and hazardous work without stopping production.
