Designed for workers who assist with safety protocols on construction
projects, the OSHA 30-Hour Construction Safety Certification provides
instruction on how to identify, avert, avoid, and control workplace hazards.
To complete the training, participants must find an OSHA-authorized
outreach trainer. As different trainers will have different schedules and fees
as well as work in different areas of construction, the organization urges
participants to reach out to several trainers to identify the most appropriate
based on his or her offerings.

OSHA furnishes an online directory with the phone numbers and emails of
authorized outreach trainers. The directory includes trainers offering in-
person instruction in English and Spanish, as well as links to online training
programs. The directories are available at www.osha.gov.
