The OSHA 10-Hour Construction course goes well beyond compliance checkboxes. You’ll build the judgment to identify hazards before they become incidents, communicate safety expectations to crews, and manage site-level regulatory responsibilities.
Understand how the Occupational Safety and Health Act works, your rights and responsibilities as a safety-designated employee, and how OSHA enforcement operates on construction sites.
Falls are the leading cause of construction fatalities. Learn the hierarchy of fall controls, equipment inspection requirements, and how to establish compliant fall protection plans for your site.
Identify electrical hazards common to job sites—from temporary wiring and GFCIs to overhead power lines and lockout/tagout procedures—and apply appropriate engineering controls.
Navigate OSHA standards for supported and suspended scaffolds, portable and fixed ladders, and understand training requirements for scaffold erectors, users, and inspectors.
Trenching incidents are often fatal and preventable. Cover soil classification, protective systems (sloping, shoring, shielding), and the role of the competent person on excavation work sites.
Learn how to select, inspect, fit, and maintain the PPE required across construction tasks, from head and eye protection to respiratory equipment and hearing conservation programs.
Understand GHS labeling, Safety Data Sheets, and the written Hazard Communication Program requirements that apply when employees are exposed to chemical hazards on construction sites.
Cover operator certification requirements, load chart fundamentals, rigging hardware inspection, and safe signaling practices for crane-assisted lifts and materials handling operations.
Develop site-specific fire prevention plans, understand extinguisher classification and placement requirements, and coordinate emergency action plan responsibilities for supervisors and foremen.
