Online training is for those who prefer self-paced training from any location and/or for employers who need to assign and monitor employee training progress and exam scores.

Why Do I Need Safety & Health Programs Training?
While OSHA doesn’t have a specific standard for safety & health programs, under the General Duty Clause, Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) of 1970, employers are required to provide a workplace that “is free from recognizable hazards that are causing or likely to cause death or serious harm to employees.”
This means employers have a legal and ethical obligation to promote a work environment that is free from hazards. You and your coworkers have the right to work in an atmosphere that promotes the safety, equality, and well-being of all.
