These materials are intended to be a resource document for instructors of occupational safety and health are not a substitute for any of the provisions of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 or for any standards issued by the U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration. They do not necessarily reflect the views or policies of the U.S. Department of Labor, nor does mention of trade names, commercial products, or organizations imply endorsement by the U.S. Department of Labor.
No attempt has been made to treat the topics exhaustively. It is expected that any instructor wishing to utilize these materials will already have a firm base of knowledge in the technical areas covered and that they will review all materials before presenting a session.
NOTE: At the time of this publication, OSHA was proposing revisions to several construction industry safety and health standards (e.g., Respiratory Protection, Scaffolding, and Confined Spaces). Instructors using these training materials are cautioned to consult the Federal Register for any new final rules that may be promulgated.
This program was compiled and edited by John Standard, CIH, CSP of OSHA's Office of Training and Education.
