OSHA 10 Training is a basic safety and health training program that provides entry-level workers in construction and general industry with fundamental knowledge about workplace hazards, workers’ rights, and employer responsibilities. The training is part of the OSHA Outreach Training Program, which seeks to promote workplace safety and health and has been in existence since 1971. The training is voluntary, but some employers may require workers to complete the training before commencing work, and it is also mandatory in certain states, cities, and local jurisdictions.
OSHA 10 Training is industry-specific, with separate courses for construction and general industry workers. The construction course is appropriate for workers who perform new construction, alterations or repairs, while the general industry course is recommended for workers in industries other than construction, agriculture or maritime. The training typically lasts for ten hours and covers topics such as hazard recognition, safety procedures, workers’ rights, employer responsibilities, and more.
The training is designed for entry-level workers, and OSHA recommends that supervisors and workers with safety responsibilities complete the more in-depth OSHA 30-Hour training. OSHA does not provide training and certification directly to employers and employees, but organizations and companies that sell OSHA-compliant training courses can certify employees to work in specific environments or perform certain tasks.
Upon completion of the OSHA 10 Training course, participants receive an OSHA 10 card, which shows that they have completed the training. The card is not required by OSHA for all employees, but some employers and states may require it. The OSHA card is valid for a lifetime, but some employers and states may require employees to retake the training every few years.
The OSHA Outreach Training Program has several benefits for both employees and employers, such as promoting safety culture through peer training, utilizing hands-on experiences, and emphasizing the value of safety and health to employees. Hard Hat Training is an example of a company that offers OSHA-compliant training courses that are convenient and affordable, including online courses, onsite training, training kits, and train-the-trainer courses.
