Becoming an OSHA Instructor
Workplace accidents are costly to the victim, the company owner, and the government. That is why there is the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) that trains people on how to implement safety procedures in the workplace.
Would you like to become an OSHA instructor, teaching workers safety and health hazard recognition and prevention?
For humane, economic, and legal reasons, no one should risk his life or put himself in danger for the sake of work. Workplace injury whether to employees, suppliers, visitors, or passers-by results in both monetary and non-monetary costs to the victim, the company owner, and the government. That is why the government has put in place the Occupational Safety and Health Administration as a regulating body under the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970. It trains people to implement measures to ensure the safety and well-being of American workers, by among others, training people on how to implement safety procedures in the workplace. Would you like to be one with OSHA in spreading safety practices at work? Be an OSHA instructor.
Where to Get OSHA Instructor Training
OSHA provides training to people who would like to teach others how to implement safety measures in their place of work. They do it directly through their OSHA Outreach Training Program. They also have authorized third parties who provide similar training. The training qualifies trainees to teach 10-hour or 30-hour courses in construction (or 500 basic instructor course) or general industry (or 501 basic instructor courses) safety and health hazards. The training lasts for a week. It is conducted by the OSHA Training Institute and the OSHA Training Institute Education Centers.
