OSHA’s electrical standards were put in place to help minimize deaths and injuries from dangers such as electrocution, burns, electric shock, fires, and explosions. This 2-hour interactive online course examines the main causes of different types of hazards and details precautions for preventing accidents. It looks specifically at the requirements of 29 CFR 1926, Subpart K – which covers the design characteristics of safe systems for use when installing and using electrical systems.  While workers may need additional training based on OSHA standards and the specific hazards of their jobs, RedVector’s Worksite Safety courses can help inject entry-level workers with critical knowledge on a variety of OSHA-regulated safety and health topics.
Course Objectives
Upon completion of this module, students should be able to:
  • Describe four types of injuries that can result from contact with electricity
  • Name at least three warning signs that an electrical hazard may exist
  • List at least five electrical hazards that may exist on a construction site
  • Describe at least three methods for protection from electrical hazards

There will be a multiple choice exam at the conclusion of the course to gauge your understanding of the material.
