OSHA stands for Occupational Safety and Health Administration. It was created out of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970. Its purpose is to ensure safe working conditions for workers by setting and enforcing standards and providing training, outreach, education and assistance. OSHA certification is an official certificate of competency issued in accordance with the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970. It signifies that the worker has achieved and met all the requirements stipulated by OSHA.OSHA's Safety and Health Fundamentals Certificate program support's OSHA's mission by training public and private sector employees in occupational safety and health to reduce incident rates for workers. Participants have the opportunity to earn certificates for Construction, Maritime, and General Industry training.Participants can choose from a variety of topics such as occupational safety and health standards, safety and health management, incident investigation, fall hazard awareness, and recordkeeping. Courses are available at OSHA Training Institute (OTI) Education Centers nationwide.While OSHA does not specifically address training or certification requirements for workers, many OSHA standards require that the employer train employees in specific safety and health aspects of their jobs. Training is voluntary and OSHA has released guidelines for training, but these are not themselves a standard. The rule of thumb is - train your employees on what they need to know to keep themselves and others safe on the worksite. OSHA doesn't necessarily know what standards are applicable to each worksite, so determining proper training is the job of employers. OSHA Outreach Training is OSHA-authorized to provide a Department of Labor OSHA card, which can be a great baseline of training for most workers. Depending on your industry, standardized 10- and 30-Hour courses can help give all employees consistent training on the most important OSHA topics, including construction's "Focus Four" hazards and other required topics, which can then be augmented with site-specific on-the-job training.
Under the Act, the Occupational Safety and Health administration (OSHA) was created within the Department of Labor.Simply stated, OSHA is the Occupational Safety and Health Administration and is responsible for worker safety and health protection.Since its inception in 1970, OSHA has cut the work-fatality rate by more than half, reduced the overall injury and illness rates in industries where OSHA has concentrated its attention, virtually eliminated brown lung disease in the textile industry and reduced trenching and excavation fatalities by 35 percent.OSHA is administered through the Department of Labor (DOL). The DOL regulates and enforces more than 180 federal laws. These mandates and the regulations that implement them cover many workplace activities for about 10 million employers and 125 million workers.Employers shall provide employees with effective information and
training on hazardous chemicals in their work area at the time of
their initial assignment, and whenever a new chemical hazard the
employees have not previously been trained about is introduced into
their work area. Information and training may be designed to cover
categories of hazards (e.g., flammability, carcinogenicity) or specific
chemicals. Chemical-specific information must always be available
through labels and safety data sheets.
