OSHA/Specialty Training

Our 4-Hour Flagger course is taught through the National Safety Council, and will educate students in the Federal and New York State policies, procedures and standards. Training will review general work zone safety while focusing on identifying and preventing hazardous conditions. The topics discussed in this course provide a thorough understanding of the proper signals and safe flagging techniques specific to New York regulations, flagging procedures and proper use of required equipment, and how to coordinate traffic movement through the work zone. Students will have an opportunity to review flagging skills using hands-on training and classroom activities.

Why is OSHA 30-Hour training necessary? In accordance with the Occupational Safety and Health act of 1970, employers are responsible for ensuring a safe and healthy workplace for their employees. This training program is a comprehensive review of OSHA procedures, policies, and standards. This course will give students a strong understanding of construction safety and health principles as well as place an emphasis on the most hazardous areas using OSHA standards and regulations as a guideline.
