OSHA RECORDKEEPING COURSE
2 Hours
$30 PER PERSON (MEMBER)
$60 PER PERSON (NON-MEMBER)

 

The annual requirement to post previous years activities in injury and illness exposures requires a constant and consistent monitoring process to ensure compliance with OSHA’s regulations.  This is a lost skill, if not regularly updated and can cost companies money if discovered out of compliance.  OSHA has clearly stated they will be focusing heavily on this administrative application over the next four years.  Be prepared and send a responsible individual for training to stay current.
