The course also raises a workers level of awareness about basic safety and health hazards that may be present at the job-site.

This course is comprised of several modules that must add up to a total of 10 hours classroom time. New rules implemented by OSHA also require the training be spread over two days, with 7.5 hours maximum time spent training in one day. Some topics are mandatory, such as the history and purpose of OSHA, basic electrical safety, personal protective equipment (PPE), and fall protection / prevention. The balance of the class is comprised of topics, like scaffolds, excavation safety, ladders and stairways, and tool / equipment safety, that are chosen by the customer.

What Topics Are Covered?

The training includes a combination of topics that are mandatory, elective and optional. Each of the three industry categories has a specific set of topics. The mandatory topics are required and must be conducted for the minimum amount of time specified by OSHA. These topics are determined by OSHA. The elective topics are chosen by the trainer from an OSHA-provided list of industry topics. The topics selected to be covered in the class will be based on industry, locality and the audience's needs. OSHA requires that a minimum number of these topics be taught. In addition, there is a specified minimum amount of time that must be devoted to these elective topics.

The optional topics supplement the mandatory and elective topics. OSHA 10 optional topics give the trainer flexibility to adjust the content to meet site specific needs while fulfilling the ten hour training time requirements. If optional topics are not covered, additional time must be spent on the mandatory or elective topics such that a full ten hours of training is delivered.

OSHA 10 cards issued in Nevada must be renewed every five years.
