Basic Safety Awareness

This 4-hour course is designed to provide employees who do not necessarily require full 10-hour or 30-hour OSHA training with a brief introduction to construction site safety. Students will gain exposure to construction fatality statistics, selection criteria for Personal Protective Equipment, standards for Hazard Communication, and fire prevention. Additionally, students will learn the various components required to establish an effective safety program, requirements for confined space entry and an orientation to blood borne pathogens, including controls for preventing the transmission of infectious diseases in the workplace.
