OSHA-30

A longer OSHA Outreach course meant for supervisors and workers with safety responsibility.

Also called:OSHA 30-Hour

Definition

OSHA-30 is the 30-hour version of OSHA's Outreach Training Program, available for construction and for general industry. It covers the same hazards as OSHA-10 in more depth and adds content on safety programs and supervisor responsibilities. It is aimed at foremen, crew leads and anyone who oversees others. Like OSHA-10, the federal course is voluntary, but some states and many project owners require it for supervisors. Workers who hold it often qualify for lead roles.
