Which OSHA training course should I take?

If your state or employer requires you to have an official OSHA card from the U.S. Department of Labor, you will need to complete OSHA Outreach training.

You should select a course that best matches your job description and industry. OSHA 10-hour training is designed for entry-level workers, and OSHA 30-hour training is intended for supervisors or workers who have some safety responsibilities.

Construction training is appropriate for workers in the construction industry, and general industry training is for workers in any industry other than construction, maritime or agriculture. If you are not sure which course to take, ask your employer to help you determine which Outreach course is most applicable to your position and the types of hazards you will encounter at the job site.

You cannot take OSHA Outreach training outside of the United States or the specific U.S. territories within OSHA's jurisdiction.
