In almost all aspects of construction safety, the importance of training workers before they embark on specific tasks is absolutely essential to avoid accidents and stay compliant with OSHA regulations. In most citations, there are some elements of training that were lacking. A common thread in these citations, as with a recent New Jersey construction company that was fined, included “failing to train employees on scaffold hazards, failing to develop and implement an accident prevention program.” The majority of compliance fines include violations of this type.
To this end, Diversified Safety Services has developed an online safety training program that includes courses on:
- Aerial Lifts in Industrial and Construction
- Confined Space Entry Training
- Fall Protection in Construction Training
- Ladder Safety in Construction Environments
- Lock-Out Tag-Out Training
- Personal Protective Equipment in Construction Environments
Three safety training courses can be bundled for $74.99 and many other topics are available, some in Spanish. Participants receive a certificate upon completion.
