objectivesThe Flammable and Combustible Liquids for General Industry online safety training from OSHA Education School is an intermediate-level course covering OSHA’s regulations and standards, which apply to nearly all workplaces in the general industry sector. Participants can expect to learn hazard awareness, recognition, evaluation, and control methods.
While the course does not cover every possible hazard or safe work practice participants may encounter in respect to flammable and combustible liquids, participants can expect a thorough overview of the most common. This course encourages participants to evaluate, analyze, and control risks at every stage of the project.
OSHA Education School’s Flammable and Combustible Liquids for General Industry course details the primary hazards associated with flammable and combustible liquids, including explosions and fires. Furthermore, participants can expect to explore the use of approved equipment and practices as outlined in the OSHA standard “Flammable and Combustible Liquids” found in in 1910.106 of the Code of Federal Regulations. Specific course topics include the following:
Introduction to flammable and combustible liquids
Primary and technical definitions
Regulatory definitions
Flammable combustible liquids
Flash points
Control of ignition sources
Inside strong rooms
Storage inside buildings
General storage
Storage containers
Fire control
Safe handling
Specific industry terms covered throughout the three courses include the following:
Flammable and combustible liquids

descriptionThis course will educate students with the fundamentals of OSHA's general industrial standard for Flammable and Combustible Liquids, which is included in 1910.106 of the Code of Federal Regulations (often referred to as the CFR's). The author discusses the problem's history, common flammable and combustible liquid definitions and classifications, ignition sources and associated controls, storage spaces and containers, fire control, and safe handling, among other topics. Although this course is geared toward flammable and combustible liquids in general industry, the material given is applicable to construction, transportation, agriculture, marine, and other activities.
You must score at least 70% to pass this OSHA training. You will be given up to THREE opportunities to pass the quizzes and final exam.
Failure to pass quizzes and the final exam will result in being locked out of this online training program, but the learner can repurchase and start back from the beginning.
Upon completing this Flammable And Combustible Liquids For General Industry and the accompanying survey, you will receive an OSHA card from the provider of this OSHA training on behalf of the Department of Labor.
Students who successfully complete the program will receive a completion card issued by the U.S. Department of Labor.
YOU MUST COMPLETE THE SURVEY AT THE END OF THIS TRAINING TO RECEIVE YOUR DOL CARD
