Course Overview
Workplace safety starts with understanding the role of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). This course provides a practical introduction to OSHA’s mission, standards, and the responsibilities shared by employers and employees to maintain a safe and healthy work environment.
Participants will learn how OSHA, established under the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, sets and enforces standards designed to prevent workplace injuries, illnesses, and fatalities. The course covers key areas such as fall prevention, personal protective equipment (PPE), hazard communication, and general safety practices across both general industry and construction settings.
The training also outlines employer responsibilities, including providing a hazard-free workplace, delivering required safety training, maintaining injury and illness records, and supplying necessary PPE at no cost to employees. Understanding these obligations is essential for maintaining compliance and reducing workplace risk.
Equally important are employee rights. This course explains workers’ rights to a safe workplace, access to safety information, participation in OSHA inspections, and the ability to report hazards or violations without fear of retaliation.
Designed for employees at all levels, this course builds a strong foundation in OSHA awareness, helping organizations foster safer workplaces and ensure compliance with federal safety regulations.
