Background of the Study
The adoption of digital tools in workplace training has transformed traditional safety education methods, offering more interactive and engaging learning experiences. Digital safety training tools, such as e-learning modules, virtual simulations, and mobile applications, provide employees with accessible, flexible, and personalized learning opportunities. In Benue State, where industries such as construction, agriculture, and transportation experience frequent workplace hazards, leveraging digital tools for safety training could significantly improve accident prevention efforts. Recent studies have highlighted that digital learning platforms can enhance information retention and encourage active participation in safety training programs (Okonkwo & Adebayo, 2024). However, the effectiveness of these tools in reducing workplace accidents in Benue State remains largely unexplored.
Statement of the Problem
Despite advancements in digital training solutions, many workplaces in Benue State still rely on traditional, classroom-based safety training, which may not effectively engage employees or accommodate diverse learning styles. Limited access to digital training resources, resistance to change, and lack of technological infrastructure could hinder the adoption of digital safety training. This study aims to examine the impact of digital safety training tools on accident prevention and to identify potential barriers to their implementation.

2. The effectiveness of digital safety training depends on user engagement, interactivity, and accessibility.
3. Lack of technological infrastructure and employee resistance to change are major barriers to the adoption of digital safety training tools.
