OSHA Construction Industry

Overview of OSHA 10 Hour Training

The United States Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) was created to help implement workplace safety standards to prevent worker injuries. OSHA developed the OSHA 10 hour and safety program to improve worker safety in the construction field as well as general industries.

The OSHA 10 Class

Taking the OSHA 10 hour training course, sometimes referred to as OSHA 10 certification, covers the most important and dangerous conditions for a particular job situation. There are various dangers in any job site and workers need to know the correct way to do their job and prevent injuries.

Many States Require the OSHA 10 Hour Class

Many states, government agencies, and individual jobs require workers to have the OSHA 10 card before they enter the job site. Specifically, New York State, Massachusetts, Nevada and New Hampshire require the OSHA 10 card for all workers on public funded projects of varying sizes.

OSHA Safety Training Summary

The OSHA 10 training courses have greatly improved worker safety in the construction industry as well as other industries.

Companies want the best worker so having the extra OSHA certification can be a good incentive.

The 10 hr course will be given by Mr. Dobis in Room 534 in two five hour sessions, one during the January regents break and the other during the June regents break.
