Disclaimer/Usage Notes
  • Photos shown in this presentation may depict
    situations that are not in compliance with
    applicable OSHA requirements.
  • It is not the intent of the content developers to
    provide compliance-based training in this
    presentation, the intent is more to address
    hazard awareness in the residential construction
    industry, and to recognize the overlapping
    hazards present in many construction workplaces.
  • It should NOT be assumed that the suggestions,
    comments, or recommendations contained herein
    constitute a thorough review of the applicable
    standards, nor should discussion of issues or
    concerns be construed as a prioritization of
    hazards or possible controls. Where opinions
    (best practices) have been expressed, it is
    important to remember that safety issues in
    general and construction jobsites specifically
    will require a great deal of site- or
    hazard-specificity a one size fits all
    approach is not recommended, nor will it likely
    be very effective.

Disclaimer/Usage Notes
  • No representation is made as to the thoroughness
    of the presentation, nor to the exact methods of
    remediation to be taken. It is understood that
    site conditions vary constantly, and that the
    developers of this content cannot be held
    responsible for safety problems they did not
    address or could not anticipate, nor those which
    have been discussed herein or during physical
    presentation. It is the responsibility of the
    employer, its subcontractors, and its employees
    to comply with all pertinent rules and
    regulations in the jurisdiction in which they
    work. Copies of all OSHA regulations are
    available from your local OSHA office, and many
    pertinent regulations and supporting documents
    have been provided with this presentation in
    electronic or printed format. This presentation
    is intended to discuss Federal Regulations only -
    your individual State requirements may be more
    stringent.
  • It is assumed that individuals using this
    presentation or content to augment their training
    programs will be qualified to do so, and that
    said presenters will be otherwise prepared to
    answer questions, solve problems, and discuss
    issues with their audiences.
