August 18, 2004—OSHA’s Office of Training and Education (OTE) is offering two new training courses for workers who respond to disaster site operations. The four-day “train-the-trainer” course and 16-hour “disaster site worker course” are available at the agency’s Education Training Centers throughout the country.
The courses were developed for workers who provide skilled support in emergency response and recovery operations at man-made and natural disaster sites. A list of course offerings, dates, and locations is available from the OTE.
