OSHA 30-Hour Construction Safety Training

Construction employers that have received OSHA's Outreach Program training have observed up to a 66% decrease in injuries resulting in time off. This online construction safety training course is a digital reproduction of the 30-hour program that was previously a success, and it will teach the construction safety and health standards that are widely used. You must dedicate at least 30 hours to the OSHA 30-hour training.

The following topics are covered in the course: Introduction to OSHA, Managing Safety and Health, Struck and Caught Hazards, Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), Hearing Conservation, Respiratory Protection, Lead and Crystalline Silica, Asbestos, GHS Hazard Communication, Electrical Safety, Hand and Power Tools, Fall Protection, Ladder Safety, Excavations, Scaffolding, Crane Safety, Heavy Equipment, Forklift Safety, Materia.

OSHA recommends Outreach Training Program courses as an orientation to occupational safety and health for workers. Workers must receive additional training, when required by OSHA standards, on the specific hazards of their job.
