Who Should take this course?
This OSHA 10 Hour General Industry Online course is intended to provide general industry workers without supervisory responsibility with information about their rights, employer responsibilities, and how to file a complaint with OSHA, as well as how to identify, abate, avoid, and prevent job related hazards on a job site.
This course covers a variety of general industry safety and health hazards that a worker may encounter. The training emphasizes hazard identification, avoidance, control, and prevention, rather than OSHA standards.
Through this training, OSHA helps to ensure that workers are more knowledgeable about workplace hazards and contribute to our nation's productivity.
This training is offered through an affiliation with AdvanceOnline Solutions, Inc., who is an OSHA-Authorized Online Outreach Training Provider for this course.
Because this course is regulated closely by OSHA and offered through this affiliation, there are differences in how it is delivered when compared to most of the other online courses we offer. .
OSHA recommends Outreach Training Program courses as an orientation to occupational safety and health for workers. When required by OSHA standards, workers must receive additional training on the specific hazards of the job.
The format of this course is quite different from other Online Training Systems courses and can be learned by viewing the Quick Start Tutorial on the first page of each content lesson. The tutorial is not required, but highly recommended.
OSHA's policy limits all OSHA Outreach Training (classroom and online) to a maximum of 7.5 hours of training per day in all OSHA 10 and 30 Hour courses.
OSHA has also issued a new policy of Program Jurisdiction Restrictions. Outreach Training Programs are now limited to OSHA jurisdiction only. Student course completion cards can only be issued to students within U.S. jurisdiction (the 50 States and certain U.S. Territories).
Students have 180 days to complete the training from the time they enroll in the course. When a course EXPIRES, the student will no longer have access to the course and any course progress will be lost. There can be no extensions for the OSHA Outreach titles.
Online Training Systems will provide much of the customer support with regard to access to your account and billing, but course content questions and technical support may be referred to AdvanceOnline Solutions.
If a student fails an OSHA 10 or 30 hour online quiz or the final exam, we allow a single free reset for all learners.
Eligibility for a free reset is granted if the student fails either a quiz or the final exam, but not both. The course is locked when a student fails a section and will not allow them to continue with the course. If the student fails any section and has not used their one free reset, please contact our customer service team and we will reset the course.
If a student is unable to complete their course due to either the OSHA 6-month regulation or the 1-year access period, no-reset or additional free access will be granted.
Reset Consequences
If a free reset is issued, the student's entire progress historically will be lost. The student will be required to restart the course from the very beginning.
