Introduction

The OSHA (Occupational Health and Safety Administration) Standards are precise, detailed, and fully functional in matters of occupational health and safety. These standards have to be followed in the United States by legislation. They are, however, also widely used internationally by many major organisations because they have shown to have prevented countless work-related injuries, illnesses, and deaths.

An understanding of modern health and safety is essential for the safe operation of all businesses, plants, and process operations. The role of health and safety management and the role of risk assessment is an essential part of modern health and safety. The OSHA standards identify not only hazards but also the financial and moral drivers for safety management.

This interactive OSHA training course offers insight into the causes of accidents, incidents, and disasters. Failures that lead to disaster are investigated to help develop robust systems for operational and process safety. Issues relating to occupational health are also discussed and developed within this training course and a robust model for accident causation is considered, along with the role of human failure.

 

Course Objectives of OSHA Occupational Safety & Health Administration Standards

  • Understand the role of OSHA in assisting Health and Safety improvement
  • Developing an appreciation of occupation health and of health surveillance
  • Understanding how incidents happen, and the role of human factors
  • Developing skills for analysing new and existing risk control measures and improving incident analysis techniques of pre and post risk and incident management arrangements
