OSHA seeks proposals for online OSHA Outreach Training Program

OSHA is seeking proposals to provide OSHA 10- and 30-hour Outreach Training Program courses online in the construction, general and maritime industries, and targeted training for young workers. The 10-hour class is intended for entry-level workers, while the 30-hour class is more appropriate for workers with some safety responsibility. Applications must be submitted in writing to OSHA by 4 p.m. CT on Dec. 12, 2014. For more information on submitting an application, visit the OSHA Outreach Training Program Web page.

          

The OSHA Outreach Training Program provides training for workers and employers on the recognition, avoidance, abatement and prevention of safety and health hazards in workplaces, and offers information on workers’ rights, employer responsibilities and how to file a complaint.
