The training includes information on a variety of OSHA requirements, including ergonomics, and also reviews the penalties involved for failure to comply with regulations designed to protect worker health and safety.

The 10-hour general industry training course is aimed at entry-level workers and designed to help them recognize and prevent hazards. This course costs $150 per participant and is scheduled from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Sept. 22 and 23.

The 30-hour course is a comprehensive safety program intended for safety directors, foremen or field supervisors. The cost is $450 per participant. Training is conducted from at 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. from Oct. 25 to Oct. 29. The registration deadline for the 30-hour course is Oct. 18.
