Course Overview

Handing someone a hard hat isn't safety; it's just a delivery.

To be compliant, employees must prove they actually know how to use the gear. This training short focuses on the "human factor" of the PPE equation. We break down the specific curriculum OSHA demands for every user. It’s not just about "putting it on", do your employees know the critical limitations of their gear?

We also clarify the strict rules for retraining. If an employee forgets the protocol or the workplace hazards change, the clock starts ticking on their competency. Watch this video to bridge the gap between merely having equipment and actually being protected.

No Worries. Here's Some Helpful Info.

Employees must be trained on: when PPE is necessary, what PPE is necessary, how to properly put on/take off/adjust/wear the PPE, the limitations of the PPE, and the proper care/maintenance/disposal of the PPE.

The employee must demonstrate an understanding of the PPE training and the ability to properly wear and use the PPE before performing work that requires it.

Retraining is required if the employer believes the employee is not demonstrating the proper understanding and skill, or if changes in the workplace or the type of required PPE make the prior training obsolete.

Documentation is required through a written certification that must include the identification of the workplace evaluated, the name of the person conducting the assessment, the date of the assessment, and identification of the certifying document.

OSHA requires employers to pay for specialty PPE used to comply with their standards. They are not required to pay for items like everyday clothing, ordinary weather protection, or for replacement PPE that an employee has lost or intentionally damaged.
