Course Description: Based on the federal mandates and the states individual rules for essential workers currently working as well as those trying to get back open after the COVID pause there is a need to provide competent person training.
Due to Federal Workplace Safety requirements ALL companies must provide training to assure the competency of their employees anytime there is a recognized hazard that is causing, or likely to cause, death or serious physical harm.
