that they are working to current practices. This updating will also reduce mistakes, paying for the upgrade in the long run. In addition to these, adequate training is a major component of an employer's responsibility to provide a safe and healthy workplace. Employer can’t assume people know how to work safely without instruction. He must make sure everyone knows and uses proper work procedures, and don't let people devise their own techniques. Some workers may feel intimidated or confused by new equipment and processes. Employer must encourage these people to speak up, and ensure they have lots of time to familiarize themselves with new routines or machines.An organization has many responsibilities to its employees but continual training is not enough for the "good" employee. A “good” employee has also responsibility to keep him or herself able to serve their company as best they can -- this includes keeping themselves up to date on all industry changes. It is the employee's responsibility to continually be aware of new happenings. The employee needs to take the initiative to either take advantage of classes or to take courses at a local college or attend workshops. It certainly is the employee's responsibility to keep abreast with developments. In almost all professions, those who stay up-to-date are leaders, while those who prefer to rest on previously gained laurels are left behind.
