Reasonable Suspicion Training (US) Suite (IACET CEU=0.2)

This program provides information about worker rights and employer responsibilities and describes how to identify, abate, avoid and prevent job-related hazards. Although many essential safety topics are covered, additional site-specific information and hands-on demonstrations of skills are ultimately needed for your safety and to fulfill training requirements found in OSHA standards. Many jurisdictions, employers and unions require this course, which is voluntary at the U.S. federal level. Each student who completes the program will receive a completion card issued by the U.S. Department of Labor. OSHA Outreach Training is only available to trainees within the geographic jurisdiction of the Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) Act. Trainees outside this jurisdiction will not receive cards. This 30-Hour program is intended for workers with some safety responsibility, and the 10-Hour program is primarily intended for entry-level workers. The program will take longer than 30 hours.

Rigging is the process of moving heavy load with slings, chains, hoists and other special tools. The equipment used for lifting and moving loads is also called rigging. Cranes can be very dangerous when used in an unsafe manner. It is the signal person that provides instructions to the crane operator and it is vital that the crane operator follow the signal person’s instructions. Both of these individuals play an important role in the overall safety of crane operation. The Crane Signaling Awareness course covers basic skills and knowledge needed to use hand or voice signals to direct the movements of mobile and tower cranes. In addition, guidelines for using voice signals are provided.

Crane operators count on signalers to provide vital lifting instructions. Whether you deliver signals, receive them or just witness them, it is important that you know why they are important, what they are, and what to do if stop work signals are given. This course provides a crane signaling overview that is appropriate for all people who work around cranes and lays the foundation for additional, in-depth and hands-on training that crane operators and signalers will receive.
