Benefits of Competent Person Training

A competent person is one who can identify existing hazards as well as predict possible and unexpected hazards based on the working conditions. While a competent person isn’t always required by OSHA, it is strongly recommended to have one ready and available on every worksite. Having a competent person in the workplace can help to minimize risks and eliminate both known and unknown hazards, ultimately making the work environment a safer place.

Normally, a competent person certificate is valid for about 12 months. After that, you will have to renew your certification by taking an OSHA-aligned refresher training or by completing the competent person safety training again.
