Government Regulations

This course covers the OSHA standards for general industry and the construction industry found in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 1910 and 1926 along with other relevant policies, procedures, and safety and health principles for the construction industry. Special emphasis is placed on those areas that are the most hazardous and most frequently cited by OSHA. Participants learn to select the appropriate OSHA standards that apply to a hazard, identify elements of a successful construction safety program, identify the more frequently cited OSHA standards, and implement an effective recordkeeping procedure.
