This program is comprehensive training for high-risk workers (i.e. skilled trades and maintenance workers) and Supervisors/Managers who work around electricity. This course will cover general points to be aware of concerning electrical safety for unqualified personnel such as Electrical Safe Work Practices, electrical safety principles, guidelines for qualification of personnel, job planning requirements, and safety responsibility of site supervisors/managers.
The course will go on to teach you the potential risks that electricity can cause in the workplace. Discover the conditions under which these dangers occur and learn the types of possible injuries that can arise when working with electricity. Then you will explore Occupational Health and Safety (OSHA) standards, training requirements, and safe practices employers should observe. Whether you fall under OSHA or other government and/or locations, this course will give you a sound knowledge base to put these guidelines into practice. You will investigate the dangers, outline the conditions that are acceptable, and understand how ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCI) can particularly make a difference.
