Course library
Every plan includes every course.
Safe Lifting and Material Handling
Plan a move, reduce awkward handling, and use assistance before a load becomes a strain.
OSHA warehousing ergonomics guidance; 29 CFR 1910.176
Training scope
Ergonomics awareness, not a universal safe-weight limit or powered-equipment qualification. Employers must assess actual loads, repetition, reach, workplace layout and individual capabilities.

Recognize alarms, follow assigned exit routes, and account for everyone at the assembly point.
29 CFR 1910.38; 1910.37
Training scope
General awareness. Employers must review their own emergency plan, reporting methods, alarms, routes, assembly locations and assigned duties with employees. This is not rescue or medical-response qualification.
Forklift and Pedestrian Safety
Use designated walkways, avoid blind spots and rear swing, and stay clear of raised loads.
29 CFR 1910.178; OSHA pedestrian-traffic guidance
Training scope
For people working around forklifts and powered industrial trucks. Not operator certification. Operators need formal instruction, practical training and workplace evaluation under 1910.178(l).

Training scope
This is awareness training. Authorized employees also need machine-specific procedure training at their site.

Choose task-appropriate protection, check its fit and condition, and know when to stop and replace it.
29 CFR 1910.132; 1910.133
Training scope
Awareness foundation for employees who use PPE. Employers must provide hazard-specific selection and training, and verify employees can use the required equipment. Respirator and hearing-conservation training are separate.

General-industry portable ladder awareness. Employers must train workers on the actual equipment and tasks. This does not cover fixed ladders, scaffolds or personal fall-protection qualification.

29 CFR 1910.22; 1910.176
