Designated, Mandatory Training Topics
(Per 2011 OSHA Regulations)
A. 10-Hour Construction Industry
"This training program is intended to provide construction
workers information about their rights, employer
responsibilities, and how to file a complaint as well as how
to identify, abate, avoid and prevent job related hazards on
a construction site.
The training covers a variety of construction safety and
health hazards which a worker may encounter at a
construction site.
Training emphasizes hazard identification, avoidance,
control and prevention, and OSHA standards.
Instructional time must be a minimum of 10 hours. The
minimum topic requirements are as follows:
1. Mandatory - 7 hours
a) Introduction to OSHA – 2 hours.
(1) OSHA has required training content for this module.
(2) Covers workers' rights, employer responsibilities and
how to file a complaint. It includes helpful worker safety
and health resources.
It also provides a sample weekly fatality and catastrophe
report, material safety data sheet and the OSHA Log of
Work-Related Injuries and Illnesses (OSHA Form 300).
(3) Materials include an Instructor Guide, PowerPoint
slides, student handouts, and participatory activities.
b) OSHA Focus Four Hazards – 4 hours.
Because most construction fatalities are caused by fall
hazards, falls must be covered for a minimum of one hour
and 15 minutes.
The other Focus Four Hazards must be covered for a
minimum of one-half hour each.
(1) Falls (minimum 1 hour and 15 minutes)
(2) Electrocution
(3) Struck-By (e.g., falling objects, trucks, cranes)
(4) Caught-In or Between (e.g., trench hazards, equipment)
Focus Four Hazards Training Requirements
All lessons for the Focus Four Hazards are required to use
the following terminal objectives (TO) and enabling
objectives (EO):
TO: Given current OSHA and industry information regarding
construction work site illnesses, injuries, and/or fatalities,
the student will be able to recognize fall, caught-in or
between, struck-by, and electrocution hazards in
construction.
EO: Specifically for each of the focus four, the student will
be able to:
EO 1: Identify major hazards
EO 2: Describe types of hazards
EO 3: Protect him/herself from these hazards
EO 4: Recognize employer requirements to protect workers
from these hazards
Because these objectives are the expected student
outcomes, trainers:
1) May not vary from these objectives when planning the
training session; and
2) Must follow the participatory training model by applying
effective training techniques;
3) Must make sure the objectives are measured to
determine student’s achievement.
c) Personal Protective and Lifesaving Equipment – 30
minutes.
d) Health Hazards in Construction – 30 minutes. May teach
noise, hazard communication, and crystalline silica or any
other construction health hazard.
2. Elective - 2 hours.
