Week 2 Lesson 3
OSHA-Compliant Safety Training, PPE, and Hazard Awareness

Section 1: Overview

Safety is the foundation of every Profession. Before you can be trusted to work on a jobsite, you must prove you understand how to protect yourself and others from harm. This week, you’ll enroll in the OSHA-10 Construction Safety Course provided by CraftED. The purpose of this assignment is to begin that certification, explore its core modules, and reflect on why safety awareness is not just a requirement—it’s a professional responsibility. Completing OSHA-10 training will make you a stronger candidate for apprenticeship placement and future employment.

Section 2: Apply – Skill Demonstration

Goal:

Students will activate their OSHA-10 General Industry Safety account, review training modules, and identify how the program directly connects to their chosen trade.

  2. Identify common hazards in Manufacturing environments.
  3. Demonstrate understanding of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) requirements.
  4. Apply the process for enrolling in and completing OSHA-10 training.
