OSHA is the Occupational Safety and Health Administration and is responsible for worker safety and health protection.

Since its inception in 1970, OSHA has cut the work-fatality rate by more than half, reduced the overall injury and illness rates in industries where OSHA has concentrated its attention, virtually eliminated brown lung disease in the textile industry and reduced trenching and excavation fatalities by 35 percent.

OSHA is administered through the Department of Labor (DOL). The DOL regulates and enforces more than 180 federal laws. These mandates and the regulations that implement them cover many workplace activities for about 10 million employers and 125 million workers.

OSHA 10-hour training is the primary method used to train workers on hazard recognition and OSHA safety standards. The OSHA 10-hour course for the general industry is for workers who have jobs related to health care, electrical, factory, warehouse, manufacturing, storage and more. This OSHA course covers general industry hazards not specific to those working construction-only jobs. Our OSHA 10-Hour Training course is designed to teach workplace safety and reduce jobsite hazards. Workers will learn about hazard avoidance, workers’ rights, filing an OSHA Complaint and more.

With successful completion of the class, participants receive an OSHA construction safety and health 10- hour course completion card.
