Managing Safety and Health - Construction Industry
Managing Safety and Health – Construction Industry is a specialized course that equips professionals with the knowledge and skills to plan, implement, and monitor effective safety and health programs in construction environments. It focuses on hazard identification, risk assessment, accident prevention, and compliance with OSHA construction standards to ensure a safe and productive worksite.
What is the Managing Safety and Health - Construction Industry?
The Managing Safety and Health in the Construction Industry course from the American Institute of Safety Professionals provides comprehensive management-level training for safety professionals, project managers, and supervisors who are responsible for construction safety programme governance. This is the construction counterpart to the Managing Safety and Health in General Industry course: while that course covers 29 CFR 1910 management, this course covers 29 CFR 1926 management with the construction-specific complexities of multi-employer worksites, constantly changing conditions, transient workforces, and the regulatory environment unique to construction.
The curriculum covers OSHA 29 CFR 1926 regulatory framework from the management perspective, site-specific safety plan (SSSP) development, contractor safety governance (pre-qualification, onsite management, performance evaluation), multi-employer worksite compliance (creating/exposing/correcting/controlling employer roles), Focus Four programme management, permit-to-work system governance, construction incident investigation, safety inspection programmes, safety meeting management, performance metrics (TRIR, DART, EMR, leading indicators), OSHA inspection management on construction sites, and the integration of safety with project management. All training is delivered 100 percent online through Microsoft Teams and the American Institute of Safety Professionals LMS.
Upon completion, graduates receive a certificate, wallet card, and transcript, employer-verifiable at amiosp.com/student-verifications.
