OSHA stresses the importance of reporting and investigating incidents that cause injury or illness on your job sites. An incident is an occurrence during work that resulted in injury, illness, or property damage. The purpose of an incident investigation is to uncover the root cause of the occurrence and assign corrective actions so that your employees feel safe at work. This is not about assigning blame. The investigation and tracking of incidents allow your company to understand safety risks and proactively use training or interventions to prevent future incidents.
In this program, we will dig more into the proactive ways to address incidents.

“The Power of Positive Thinking” – have you heard this phrase before? Everyone generally agrees on the goal of seeking or maintaining personal happiness. We often are also concerned about the well-being of others. In pursuit of this happiness, we might consider work as simply an obstacle or annoyance. Taking a positive approach to the workplace allows us to extend this pursuit to our careers and professional relationships. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, on average we work more than most typical household and leisure activities combined. In other words, we typically spend more time interacting at work than we do with family or friends. Given this, workplace positivity is necessary for the health of most of our daily interactions. It is also the key to providing superior customer service, avoiding the harmful effects of toxic work environments, and enjoying what is effectively a huge chunk of your life. Topics Covered Include: Self-Reflection: How do you approach work? Building a Positive Workplace Culture Benefits of Positivity at Work What is my role? Next Steps… and more!

What do you think of when you hear the words “Leader, Supervisor; Manager”? You may have had positive or negative experiences with past supervisors. Think back to these leadership examples. What about them would you imitate? What would you avoid? As a supervisor, it is important to gain a strong understanding of your direct reports’ personalities. Some employees will react to stressors - like change, or work challenges - in different ways. They will also communicate and interact with each other differently. In fact, there are recognized personality categories across which we all tend to fit. Leadership styles are also divided into categories. This list commonly includes: authoritarian, participative, delegative, transactional, and transformational. Authoritarian leaders take the reins and clearly define direction and expectations. Participative leaders include employees in decision-making. Delegative leaders divide up tasks and give creative control to employees - typically based on team members' skill sets and strengths. Transactional leadership rewards the efficient completion of organizational goals. There are direct consequences for poor performance. Transformational leaders ask team members to pursue a shared vision that they champion and support. There are pros and cons to each leadership style. First, identify which style most fits your tendencies. Then learn to apply different approaches based on organizational, employee, and external stakeholder needs. Which of the five leadership styles best describes your own management approach? What type of leader do you want to be?

SAFETY LEADERSHIP: AN ESSENTIAL SAFETY ELEMENT Every successful safety program is built on a foundation of essential elements. One such element is "Safety Leadership." Safety Leadership can be defined as "the influence of a person's words or actions on the safety decisions made by others." It's important to note that safety leadership comes from everyone, including the newest employee, the experienced worker, the front line supervisor, and the plant manager. Safety leaders speak up and do not condone unsafe acts, nor do they take shortcuts to make a job easier or faster. Effective safety leadership must also include discipline and consistent rules enforcement from managers and supervisors. It's also important to understand that Safety Leaders don't have to be vocal. The quiet leadership exhibited by workers who always follow the safety rules also has a powerful effect.

Not all enclosed workspaces are considered confined spaces, and not all confined spaces require an entry permit. The federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) provides clear requirements aimed at protecting employees in general industry from permit-required confined space hazards (CFR 29 1910.146).
This course will help you identify, prepare for, and respond to potentially hazardous work in or near confined spaces. What do you think of when you hear the phrase “Confined Space”? Do you work in or around confined spaces? Can you identify the potential hazards in these areas, and do you know how to respond to an emergency situation? You may be unaware that you are working near or around a confined space – let alone one that requires a permit before work can begin. Under OSHA’s Permit-Required Confined Spaces Standard, an employer must evaluate a workplace to determine classification as permit-required confined spaces and put into place protections and safety plans.

This course will guide you through the history, purpose, and key components of GHS labeling. You'll gain a comprehensive understanding of the seven core elements of GHS labels and the nine hazard pictograms. We'll walk you through practical examples to help you interpret labels accurately, and apply this knowledge in your day-to-day operations. We'll also briefly cover the labeling requirements for different types of containers—original, secondary, and small—and how they apply at each step, from manufacturing and transportation to end use.
Whether you're in construction, manufacturing, healthcare, or any industry that relies on hazardous chemicals to do their work, mastering the GHS labeling system is a crucial skill for workplace safety. So, if you're an employer striving to ensure workplace safety, an employee handling hazardous substances, or a safety professional seeking to upgrade your knowledge base, this course is designed for you. Start your journey toward more effective hazard communication today, because understanding the language of GHS labels is not just a regulatory requirement—it's a lifesaver.

Did you know that hundreds of thousands of work-related injuries and illnesses are reported to OSHA every year? When a worker is hurt, it can lead to missed days from work or a new job assignment due to being unable to complete a current task. Common workplace injuries include fractures, sprains, bruises, lacerations, burns, and more serious injuries such as amputations, loss of an eye, or even death. In a recent annual study by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the top two industries with the most work-related fatalities were the transportation and construction industries.
Veterinary services and nursing were the top industries with non-fatal injuries and illnesses, respectively. These are not the only four industries where injuries, illnesses, incidents, and close calls occur; they occur across all industries, both public and private. By law, employees are entitled to a safe workplace as noted in OSHA’s General Duty Clause (29 USC 654 S5). In addition, OSHA has several other standards in place that address occupational safety and health standards to help reduce and eliminate hazards as well as required protocols to report incidents when they occur (29 CFR 1910 and 29 CFR 1904). Failure to identify or recognize that a hazard–something that could cause potential harm–is present is the main reason injuries, illnesses, and incidents occur.
Do you work in the industry? Are you wondering what you and your co-workers can do to keep yourself safe from injuries, illnesses, and incidents? What types of hazards exist in your workplace? Are there protocols and procedures that can be put in place to reduce or eliminate hazards on the job? This course will help you to identify and recognize common workplace hazards including examples found across all industries and explain how to properly report an incident when one does occur. In addition, this course will discuss how future incidents can be reduced or eliminated through the completion of periodic inspections, as well as job safety analysis and root cause analysis reports. If you are interested in learning more about hazard recognition in the workplace, this course is for you!

Do you work with or around machines or use power tools? If so, you would probably think twice about wearing loose clothing in your workplace – including shoes that pose a trip hazard or lanyards and other objects hanging around your neck. In your line of work, what type of clothing you put on – and how well it fits – might make the difference between dismemberment or even death. The utility of power tools and equipment – whether electrical, pneumatic, hydraulic or any other method of mechanical powering – comes with a slew of dangers for their operators. Machine safeguarding requirements are in place to give operators their best chance at safe use. Both administrative control measures that govern how equipment is used maintained or otherwise interacted with – as well as engineering control measures that seek to remove or separate employees from hazards – are important in machine safeguarding. As we just discussed – you have some control over your safety in your choice of clothing each workday, but your safety is more than a matter of clothing choice. Hazard awareness, well-maintained equipment guards, and other safety devices and practices play a huge part in keeping you and your coworkers safe on the job. In this training, you will learn to identify common machine hazards and the types of safeguards that should be employed to protect against those hazards. We will also explore how the proper use of personal protective equipment can act as your last line of defense against the dangers of machine use. This training will also help you build your understanding of equipment maintenance repair practices machine stability precautions proper tool use and guarding and other safe work practices tie-in to machine safeguarding requirements.
