HO (HO HO) Human Organization (HO)= is one possibility, although the usual term I would expect to see would be HR (Human Resources).

Training in Safety and Human Organization

I always confirm the meaning of undefined abbreviations with my clients.
"Human Organization" is also the journal of the Society for Applied Anthropology, but in the context of the query HO might refer to organizing people in situations like evacuation drills.

Training in safety and hazardous operations

I think this might be what the ST is referring to. However, the more common acronym in English for this, by far, is "HAZOPS", not "HO".
I think that more context could help here.
