OSHA’s area office in Boise initiated the training, which is a key feature of a “local emphasis program” aimed at reducing job hazards in the residential construction industry. Company owners, managers, supervisors and foremen will learn about OSHA standards for residential construction, criteria for fall protection systems and equipment, and how to prepare for safety inspections.
Cost for each training session is $10 for AGC and IBAC members and $15 for others.
