How do I Get OSHA 10 Certified?
Though there is technically no such thing as "OSHA 10 certification", those who use the phrase are likely referring to OSHA's Outreach program. You can find a list of authorized trainers on OSHA's website to help workers like you find a legitimate training provider (Note: 360training is on this list).
If you pass a course from an authorized training provider like us, the DOL will issue you an official 10-Hour card. These cards aren't mandatory everywhere, but they may be required by your state or employer. Find out more about OSHA Outreach Training by watching our video.
Do I Need Construction Or General Industry Training?
OSHA defines "construction work" as work for construction, repairs, painting, and decorating. Generally, you will need OSHA Construction training if you’re a construction worker or a contractor.
All entry-level construction workers need OSHA 10-Hour Construction Safety Outreach Training, with some workers may requiring additional training for specialized work.
General Industry refers to any industry not included in construction, maritime, or agriculture. Some examples are healthcare, manufacturing, cosmetology, automotive, and warehousing. All employers must conduct basic workplace safety training.
Low-risk industries don't require anything as thorough as the OSHA 10 Hour course. However, there isn't a universal rule for the specific occupations requiring OSHA training, and regulations differ state by state. Check for your state requirements here.
How Quickly Will I Get My DOL Card?
When you complete an OSHA Outreach training program, instead of receiving a certification or certificate, you earn a DOL card. This shows employers that you've met your OSHA training requirements, and they can let you on the job site.
Most providers make you wait 6-8 weeks to get your DOL card. We make sure your DOL card arrives in 2 weeks so that you can get to work fast.
And to ensure you're selecting the right course, always make sure your training is from an OSHA-authorized provider, like 360training. You can confirm our credentials on OSHA's website.
How Do I Get Proof of Completion While I Am Waiting for My DOL Card?
After completing your course, return to your "My Training" page and click the certificate icon. From here, you can view and print your temporary certificate of completion.
