The need for safety training for workers has never been more important. The risks of having employees lacking safety training has never been greater. NAPA has several print and online resources that can provide outstanding training including:
Spanish Safety Construction for Highway Orientation (TAS-29). This video is designed to orient the Spanish-speaking worker in the proper use of both personal equipment and situations found on a work site. Protect Yourself Safety Series (TAS-31D). This DVD was created by the Australian Asphalt Pavement Association Ltd. and includes three segments designed to demonstrate the proper techniques for protecting yourself on the job site. Lockout/Tagout: When Everyone Knows (TAS-24D). This DVD explains how to comply with OSHA regulations for isolating and shutting down power to equipment. Employee Hazard Communication Guidebook (N0-1) provides information on how to train employees in the proper handling of hazardous materials. Material Safety Data Sheets (HS-13) provides guidance on complying with OSHA regulations.
NAPA partner Pavia Systems has produced online safety courses which utilize graphics, animation, and quizzes to maximize the effectiveness of the training. These online courses are ideal for companies with operations spread over a number of locations. Confined Spaces Awareness Online Course (PA-4) addresses the hazards associated with confined spaces located at a HMA facility. Hazardous Materials Transportation (PA-52) satisfies the DOT/Hazmat refresher training requirements and describes federal regulations that affect transportation of hazardous materials.
