The Course is free for construction workers and companies that are not employed by or affiliated with municipal, state or federal government. Funding is provided through a Susan Harwood Training Grant. This grant will provide training for the following highway work zone worker groups on elimination of major occupational safety and health hazards posed to work zone workers for injuries, fatalities, and health problems:
- Safety training for “craft” workers and other related disciplines involved in highway and road survey, construction, and maintenance activities.
- Safety training for work zone traffic control workers, including flaggers, those who set up traffic control and worker protection devices and those who direct traffic in a work zone
- Safety training for utility contractor workers who perform utility work activities that result in partial or full closure of a roadway
- Safety training for any others who are nongovernmental workers that work in traffic control areas
Companies must have a minimum of 15 qualified employees. The Construction Safety Council will deliver this 6-hour course to your site or location anywhere in the United States free of charge.
If you have questions, or would like to arrange a class, Call Beverlee Carrick (ext 202) or Paul Satti (ext 213) at 800-552-7744.
