ARC FLASH TRAINING SEMINAR
A 1-Day Onsite Electrical Safety Seminar
for OSHA 1910.331-1910.335 Compliance

In the event of an electrical accident, one of the first questions asked to you by OSHA will most likely be: "Did you provide electrical safety training with hazard awareness?" You want to be able to answer: "Yes we did."

This seminar is designed to provide your employees and contractors with the hazard awareness and electrical safety training as required by OSHA and will increase employee awareness of electric shock, arc flash, and arc blast hazards. If your objective is to bring your training program into compliance with OSHA mandated electrical training while providing your employees with necessary electrical safety hazard awareness and accident avoidance, then this is the seminar for you.

This onsite electrical safety seminar with arc flash training includes identifying and avoiding electrical hazards and choosing the proper personal protective equipment (PPE).

This seminar will be presented by an Authorized OSHA Outreach Trainer.
Material is presented using a mix of entertaining videos and informative lecture. Attendee involvement and discussion are encouraged throughout the seminar.

The seminar concludes with a simple open-book test which demonstrates the attendees understanding of electrical hazards and PPE selection.

Morning and afternoon sign-in sheets will be provided. Each attendee will receive a Certificate of Seminar Completion confirming attendance in the electrical safety training seminar.

The seminar usually takes 5 to 6 hours to adequately cover all of the required information.

You may want to ask us about adding an extra day with Electrical Theory and Review as the first day (making this a 2-day electrical safety seminar).

As a bonus, the extra day will include hands-on meter training to comply with the 2009 edition of the NFPA 70E^® code. Attendees will receive hands-on training and then demonstrate to the instructor, with hands-on exercises, their ability to choose the correct meter for a task and safely use that meter to check, using an actual test circuit, for the absence of voltage. This is now required by NFPA 70E^® code.

The attendees will receive a Certificate of Meter Training and Demonstration of Safe Meter Use in addition to the Certificate of Electrical Safety Training which is included with the 1-day seminar.

OSHA evaluates compliance with its electrical safety regulations, OSHA 1910 Subpart S and OSHA 1926 Subpart K, using the comprehensive information in NFPA 70E^® . OSHA bases its electrical safety mandates on the NFPA 70E^®. While OSHA requires you to avoid electrical dangers, this seminar, with information provided by the NFPA 70E^®, tells you how.

If you have an electrical accident OSHA will take the position that you have violated one or more of their rules or regulations. The purpose of their investigation will be to determine which rules you violated and how much your fine will be. While absolutely no one can guarantee that your employer complies with all OSHA rules and regulations the consensus is that by providing employees with the information contained in the NFPA 70E^® and by utilizing the information found in NFPA 70E^® you have taken important steps, as viewed by OSHA, towards providing employees with a safer workplace.
