OSHA 10 Legal Information
OSHA Aligned. I-CAB Recognized. Because OSHA 10 is only required in the following states (CT, MA, MO, NY, NV, RI, WV), we have created an OSHA 10 equivalent course for employees working in construction in the remaining 43 states. Even in those 43 states, it is ultimately up to the employer to decide whether they require the official OSHA 10 or if an equivalent version will do. This OSHA 10 Equivalent course is OSHA Aligned in the areas that do not require the official course and is designed to familiarize workers with OSHA Requirements as well as safety and health hazards common to the workplace. A paper wallet card is made available immediately upon successful completion. Plastic wallet cards can also be mailed for an additional nominal fee.
