Description

The purpose of this course is to teach you how to protect yourself from hearing loss due to excessive noise levels in the workplace.

It is common for workers to suffer hearing loss from being subjected to constant or irregular noise at the job site, especially for public works employees and construction workers.

You must be aware of safety standards for hearing conservation, what types of protectors are available to you, and what rights and protections you have under state and federal law.

This course is intended to provide safety and health training in compliance with Federal OSHA and State OSHA training requirements such as Cal OSHA. If you have questions, you may ask our instructors, and they will respond to you within a short period of time, as outlined by OSHA standards.

The training will cover all the required elements outlined in Federal and State OSHA standards to ensure that your training meets or exceed the minimum required training. If your training has a time requirement, the content of the training has been designed to meet that requirement.

The training is developed by our in-house, real trainers with twenty years of experience working in the field and with real crews. It is trusted by public agencies throughout California.

There are no prerequisites required for this course. The course will walk you through all the elements needed to be successful and complete any questions or quizzes, or testing that may be required.

Who this course is for:

  • Anyone who works in environments with excessive noise or works with tools producing significant and potentially damaging levels of sound.
