The Managing Safety and Health - General Industry course provides essential training on overseeing workplace safety in various industries. It covers OSHA standards, risk management, hazard identification, and safety program development, equipping managers with the skills to ensure compliance,

What is the Managing Safety and Health - General Industry?
The Managing Safety and Health in General Industry course from the American Institute of Safety Professionals provides comprehensive management-level training on designing, implementing, and governing safety and health programmes in general industry environments: manufacturing, warehousing, distribution, healthcare, hospitality, retail, office, and every workplace governed by OSHA 29 CFR 1910 (General Industry Standards). This is the management-level counterpart to the technical general industry courses (HazCom, machine guarding, LOTO, confined space): while those courses teach specific standards, this course teaches how to manage the overall safety programme that ensures compliance with all of them.
The curriculum covers OSHAβs Recommended Practices for Safety and Health Programs (the four core elements: management leadership, worker participation, hazard identification and assessment, hazard prevention and control, plus education/training, programme evaluation, and communication), the OSHA 29 CFR 1910 regulatory framework (navigating Subparts by topic), safety management system design (policy, planning, implementation, checking, management review), workplace hazard assessment methodology, safety inspection programme design, incident investigation and root cause analysis, safety committee formation and management, regulatory compliance auditing, safety performance metrics (TRIR, DART, leading indicators), and the management review process that drives continuous improvement.
All training is delivered 100 percent online through Microsoft Teams and the American Institute of Safety Professionals LMS. Upon completion, graduates receive an American Institute of Safety Professionals certificate, wallet card, and transcript, employer-verifiable at amiosp.com/student-verifications.
