PSARA provides both the 10- and 30-hour programs to managers, superintendents, foremen, and general industry employees with an overview of federal standards critical to safety and health in their companies. The curriculum is designed to develop a workable familiarity with essential compliance elements common on many industrial sites. Our instructors convey this knowledge through multimedia lecture sessions, challenging interactive workshops, pertinent hands-on exercises, and insightful review sessions.

Topics addressed in the 30-hour program correspond to pertinent subparts of the OSHA Safety and Health Regulations for General Industry, 29 CFR 1910. The program involves the students in regulatory issues fundamental to worker safety, such as General Safety and Health Provisions, and Occupational Health and Environmental Controls. Other key areas taught during the course include:

The program also provides students with an understanding of OSHA's perspective regarding the concepts of establishing and maintaining an effective safety program, conducting workplace inspections, issuing citations, and negotiating penalties. This overview is essential for preparing personnel to establish safe and compliant industrial sites.

PSARA uses only its senior instructors in presenting this program. At least one OSHA-authorized trainer is involved and available at all times throughout each course. Because our instructors have an array of industry site safety supervision, and compliance inspection experience, they convey technical and regulatory subject matter to the students that integrates their practical experiences. This blend enables them to relate "real-world" solutions to the problems faced when attempting to satisfy specific safety compliance objectives.
