30 hour OSHA training

wood you pay your foreman to attend this class? or any employee ?

Depending on the person I would obtain my 10 hour card first, get the basics, then move on. Depending on the instructor 30 hour class can be quite taxing, mentally. Typically, a 10 hour is all that is required for state funded projects. I don't know of any states that require a 30 hour card. However, some businesses may require more training (like a BASF) but it would probably be their own safety program more pertinent to the facility.

Any boss that would take that attitude is a seriously cheap a$$ moron, imho.

I agree! :laugh:

When I first read your question, I thought you were asking "Is it worth it"? I would say yes, and beyond worth it if a customer requires it.

Your last comment seems that your employer is requiring you to attend without pay.

THAT'S WRONG !!!!

If you really want to have some fun, do it, then file a complaint with the Industrial Commission.

Hi mike all employees will take the OSHA 10 hour and foremen 30 hour ."guessing its same as your gold card" and I'm sure its very valuable training . Like copperman and wild bill said if the job requires it then pay me. Or am I wrong should just give my time away?

If you do commercial work I think it's worth it. Especially if it avoids one serious penalty by the OSHA.

It's required on some of the corps of engineer jobs, military base work, and some college campuses.

depends on what type of roofing you do and where you work. I do all residential in rural areas so no I would not. If I worked in the city then I would.
