Who Needs this Training?
According to OSHA All employees working in these areas:
• Those who work on jobsites and may exposed to hazards.
• Workers that may be involved in work types that may create clutter or messes on site.
• Those that train or modify training exposures.
• Those that are new to the jobsite.
Dangers of Remaining Uncertified:
Poor housekeeping can be a cause of incidents, such as:
• Tripping over loose objects on floors, stairs and platforms
• Being hit by falling objects
• Slipping on greasy, wet or dirty surfaces
• Striking against projecting, poorly stacked items or misplaced material
• Cutting, puncturing, or tearing the skin of hands or other parts of the body on projecting nails, wire or steel strapping
To avoid these hazards, a workplace must “maintain” order throughout a workday. Although this effort requires a great deal of management and planning, the benefits are many.

For example, workers must be retrained when:
• Changes in the workplace render previous training obsolete.
• Incidents occur on site.
• Inadequacies in workers’ knowledge or hazard precautions indicate that they do not adequately understand training.
