OSHA established an outreach training program to provide training for workers and employers on the recognition, avoidance, abatement, and prevention of safety and health hazards in workplaces.
This program has 10-hour or 30-hour classes, which are referred to as "OSHA 10" and "OSHA 30". The 10-hour class is intended for entry level workers, while the 30-hour class is more appropriate for supervisors or workers with some safety responsibility - specifically devised for safety directors, foremen, and field supervisors; the program provides complete information on OSHA compliance issues.
Workers or employers can get them through onsite training programs, traditional classroom setting programs or online programs. they just have to look for OSHA authorized providers.
No, if you have completed OSHA 30 training, you do not need to complete OSHA 10, as OSHA 30 includes all the content covered in OSHA 10 and is more comprehensive. OSHA 30 is often required for supervisors and workers in more complex roles, while OSHA 10 is aimed at entry-level workers. However, be sure to check specific job or employer requirements, as some may have their own policies.
Being "OSHA certified" doesn't mean anything. In fact OSHA doesn't give certifications to anybody. It means you took a 10-30 hour safety course.
OSHA does not cover workers, per se, as does an insurance company. OSHA enforces law requiring the work place to be safe.
The student cards for the 10 hr and 30 hr course do not expire. Credentials as an OSHA Outreach Instructor DO expire, but not the student completion cards. They are discussing changing that in the future.

Yes, to obtain an OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) card, you typically need to complete a training course, which often includes a test or assessment at the end. The most common courses are the OSHA 10-hour and 30-hour training programs, which cover various safety and health topics relevant to the workplace. Passing the test is required to receive the certification card.

No. Much of the instruction provided to workers does not require certification on the part of the instructor. However, to teach either the General Industry or the Construction 10 hour or 30 hour courses, you must be a graduate of the OSHA 500 or 501 course. Completing the 10 hr or 30 hr course does not provide certification as an instructor.
