Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)

In addition to adhering to OSHA standards, the Department of Defense mandates that each military department, including the Department of the Army (DA), implement a comprehensive safety and occupational health program. This initiative aims to ensure the safety and well-being of military personnel by identifying hazards, implementing preventive measures, and fostering a culture of safety. The program necessitates regular training, assessments, and compliance audits to maintain high safety standards and minimize workplace injuries and illnesses. Ultimately, it reflects the military's commitment to protecting its workforce while fulfilling its operational mission.

OSHA can fine employers up to $147,000 for willful violations as of 2023. A willful violation is defined as one where the employer knowingly fails to comply with safety standards or is indifferent to the safety of employees. The fine reflects the seriousness of the violation and aims to encourage compliance with safety regulations.

During an inspection of a licensed establishment, regulatory officials assess compliance with health, safety, and legal standards. They check for proper licensing, sanitation practices, and adherence to operational regulations. If violations are found, the establishment may receive warnings, fines, or even temporary closure until issues are rectified. The inspection results can impact the establishment's reputation and operational status.

Yes, OSHA requires site-specific hands-on training as part of the 40-hour HAZWOPER training. While the initial 40-hour training covers general hazardous waste operations and emergency response, employers must provide additional training tailored to the specific hazards and conditions of the site where employees will be working. This ensures that workers are adequately prepared to handle the unique challenges of their work environment.

The OSHA 10 hour Outreach Course must be taught by, or under the supervision of a person that has graduated from the OSHA 500 or 501 Outreach Instructor's Course, depending on whether the 10 hr is Construction (1926) or General Industry (1910). As a certified instructor, I might have a non-instructor present a portion of the course, but I must supervise that instruction. Example- For Subpart O, Machine Guarding, I may have a company rep from a firm that makes machine guards speak to the class for 30 minutes about machine guards. Although the company rep is not certified as an instructor, he has knowledge and expertise in THAT field, and is under my observation and supervision. Same applies to the 30 hour outreach course. You may find that a lot of online providers are now offering online courses for OSHA 10 hour outreach course. What you must do is check with your state board if those providers are approved and accredited to sell courses and if their courses are approved by the board.
