Why Do I Need Steel Erection (Subpart R) Safety Training?
While OSHA doesn’t have specific standards for general Steel Erection training, Subpart R does require that all personnel working on steel erection have training in safety for any hazard to which they will come into contact. Subpart R also dictates special training for anyone involved in Multiple Lift Rigging, Controlled Decking Zones, and Connectors.
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 falling objects, falling hazards, and structural instability. You and your coworkers have the right to work in an atmosphere that promotes the safety, equality, and wellbeing of all.
