Train your team to recognize hidden risks, take proactive safety steps, and create a safer office environment, without slowing down productivity.
This immersive experience places users in a detailed office setting where seemingly minor hazards can have major consequences. Through guided exploration and interactive problem-solving, participants build the confidence to assess risks and implement control measures that reduce injury and improve overall safety.
Office workers may face fewer obvious dangers, but poor safety awareness can still lead to serious injuries and costly disruptions.
Participants are challenged in an interactive office environment where they must:
- Identify everyday hazards such as trip risks, poor ergonomics, electrical faults, and blocked exits.
- Use the Hierarchy of Controls and Risk Assessment Matrix to mitigate risks.
- Apply learned skills in a timed site safety inspection under exam conditions.
This hands-on training empowers teams across admin, HR, finance, and other desk-based roles to take ownership of workplace safety, making health and safety everyone’s responsibility, not just the job of the field crew.

Learning Outcomes
What is Custom VR Builds?
It’s a service where Next World creates a fully tailored VR-training solution for your company — a custom course built to meet your industry-specific requirements rather than using a generic off-the-shelf VR module.
How does the custom-build process work?
The process typically follows these phases: you provide training documentation, subject-matter experts get involved, learning outcomes are identified, storyboard is created, virtual assets are modeled, testing and quality assurance, and finally deployment in your environment.
What type of training scenarios can be built?
You can build VR scenarios for hazard awareness, safe-practice with tools and equipment, practicing safety procedures step-by-step, and even testing learner’s knowledge in simulated hazardous situations — as if in real life but safe.
Is custom VR suitable for refresher training as well?
Yes — custom VR builds can be used for refresher/training-update courses to efficiently refresh skills and knowledge without re-arranging real equipment or putting people at risk.
What learning methodology does custom VR follow?
Next World suggests a blended approach: combining face-to-face, practical and immersive training methods, which helps improve retention, practical competence, and reduces incidents.
