HutchCC Safety Academy

What would you do, next Monday morning if an OSHA inspector walked through your door and wanted you to escort him through your plant or shop?  Oh sure, you think you've got the necessary posters up, you've got a pretty good safety record, but you did have a few more minor accidents last year. Well...maybe he won't look too closely when he gets to the shop... (hope those guys straightened up that stuff I told them about Friday!!)

AWARENESS ACTION PREVENTION These three words that proactive safety people like yourself have to keep in mind everyday. Your company may be aware that through Hutchinson Community College there are programs available to you that will help curb some of those unpleasant surprises that every business owner and/or safety person dreads.

HutchCC SAFETY ACADEMY will be a pleasant surprise to you and your work force. Our program has available staff that can help your safety program by assisting in preventing those deficiencies if OSHA did decide to pay you a visit. We offer cost effective, state-of-the-art training along with company specific written safety plans to help with your compliance needs.

We would like you to offer a SAFETY ASSESSMENT SERVICE, at a nominal fee, that could save headaches for your company. What this service consists of is a mock OSHA inspection (from office to shop to break area) where we pinpoint areas that need your attention and make suggestions in written form for your files.

We look forward to meeting with you and helping you and your company have safer days ahead.

Mine safety training in the United States is regulated by the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA). The specific legal requirements for a particular mining operation depend upon the commodity that is being mined.The requirements are set out in 30 C.F.R. Part 46 and 30 C.F.R. Part 48.
   
MSHA regulations mandate:

  • which miners must be trained
  • how much training is required
  • who may provide the training
  • the subject areas that need to be covered by the training.   

MSHA training regulations also require certification that training has been completed as well as impose record keeping requirements.
