The Maine Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Standards is hosting its no-charge safety courses for employers and employees throughout January. Visit the class registration page at www.safetyworksmaine.gov or call 1-877-SAFE 345 (1-877-723-3345) to register for any class.
“A no-cost, confidential, onsite consultation by the Department of Labor’s health and safety experts can help employers provide a safer workplace for their employees and reduce worksite injuries, illnesses and even fatalities, not to mention save costs related to workers’ comp, reduced productivity or finding replacement workers,” said Governor Paul R. LePage. “A worksite that’s safe for all is good business for companies, their workers and those workers’ families.”
Courses are held at no charge to employers and their employees in the SafetyWorks! Training Institute at the Maine Department of Labor, 45 Commerce Drive in Augusta, unless otherwise noted.

10-Hour Construction Standards: Thursday, January 12, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., through Friday, January 13, 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

This one-and-a-half-day course offers basic information on several of the OSHA standards for construction (29 CFR 1926). Attendees who complete the course will receive an OSHA 10-hour course completion certificate. Class runs from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on day one and 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on day two.

 

SafetyWorks! is not OSHA and cannot issue fines or citations to private businesses. While SafetyWorks! helps businesses of any size, priority is given to small businesses.
