Takeaway: OSHA Training isn’t required by the government in Texas, but there’s plenty of reason to take it

OSHA Training in Texas

OSHA 10 hour training and 30 hour training (as well as other OSHA Accepted training) are not mandated by the State of Texas, although many employers do require such training, especially larger construction firms.  Since Texas is such a huge state, with over $50 billion a year in construction work, demand for OSHA 10 and 30 hour construction training especially is high, whether administered on site or taken online.

 

Enroll in the OSHA 10 Hour Construction Online Training Course or the OSHA 10 Hour General Industry Training Course by Clicking the appropriate button.
Price is $89.00 each and includes a FREE PDF Study Guide. These courses result in the Department of Labor OSHA Wallet Card, valid in all 50 states. Upon successful completion, you will be able to print your certificate of completion as proof of your accomplishment. Your OSHA Wallet Card will be sent to you in the email in about approximately two weeks.

 

According to a 2010 study, Texas is the most hazardous state in America for workers, and at some point 1 out of every 5 workers will require hospitalization for an injury on the job.  Don’t be a statistic!  Invest in your future and take your OSHA training course online today!

 

Many of these accidents are related to small, fly-by-night contractors cutting safety corners, but it certainly makes a good case for improving safety training for all workers.  (A national news report on this situation appeared in April 2013 titled “Construction Booming In Texas, But Many Workers Pay Dearly“)

 

Surprisingly, for such a dangerous workplace reputation, Texas doesn’t have its own occupational safety department.  The state agency with the most enforcement power in worker safety regulation is the Division of Worker’s Compensation, part of the Texas Department of Insurance.   Naturally OSHA also maintains offices in the state to address concerns of workers and employers (office addresses are at the bottom of the page).
