OSHA Site Supervisor-Online
Environmental
As a result, today's supervisor must become proficient in three skill areas:
- Learn to recognize hazards
- Learn to control the hazards to prevent injuries, illness, and property damage
- Learn to use effective communication skills
The supervisor, as a member of the company's management team, shares responsibility for maintaining a safe, productive workplace. He or she must communicate and enforce rules and procedures, train workers, and represent the interests of both the organization and employees.
The supervisor must constantly watch over and inspect both the workplace and work procedures, keeping in mind the three E's of safety: Engineering, Education, and Enforcement. It is the supervisor's job to work with safety and health professionals, designers, engineers, maintenance, and personnel staff to engineer as many hazards out of the workplace as possible, to educate employees in safe work practices and procedures, and to enforce all safety rules and policies. In this role, the supervisor acts as investigator, safety researcher, and advocate.
This on-line course is designed for Site Supervisors and others who manage hazardous material site workers. This information will provide supervisors and managers specific information in order to properly supervise workers, remediation investigations, and oversee other site activities. This training meets the requirements outlined in paragraph "e" of 29 CFR 1910.120.
Important Update: Recent OSHA regulatory updates NOW REQUIRE that all SITE SUPERVISORS receive 8-hours of Annual Refresher Training. This training meets those refresher requirements.
