Safety & Health Training

Safety and Health training is required by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration's Code of Federal Regulations, as most employers know.  Each employer must train its personnel in the hazards and prevention methods for the tasks they will be performing in their organization.  Just meeting the mandatory training requirements is the minimum required by law. 

Training is more than delivering a message.  As the employer, you have verify understanding of the requirements and audit the field against the requirements set forth to verify their knowledge of the training provided.  Anyone can deliver a message to a group of employees, but it takes a knowledgeable person and proficient adult educator to deliver the message in a manner comprehensible to the worker group.

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Code of Federal Regulations lists numerous types of training, with various exceptions and provisions. However, general knowledge of a few simple laws and conditions can help you understand the requirements for OSHA training.

History

• OSHA has extensively researched the correlation between training employees and a safe working environment. Many work-related injuries could have been prevented or greatly reduced in severity by instructing employees on less hazardous practices. So OSHA developed training standards, also called regulations (CFRs), and enforces them with citations and penalties.

Types

• Most OSHA training is divided into four major sections: initial; annual; specific increments (such as every three years); and when changes or new hazards occur. Typically, even if a law allows for several years between training, it's likely your employees will need more frequent training because of the potential for new hazards”
