Our Hand & Power Tool Safety training course helps employees recognize and avoid the hazards associated with hand tools and power tools in compliance with OSHA Standards 29 CFR 1910 and 1926 as applicable. Tools are a common part of everyday work life — used across nearly every industry for cutting, fastening, drilling, grinding, and countless other tasks. While useful, hand and power tools can also be dangerous: even a simple mishap like a slipped wrench or a misplaced hammer strike can cause injury, and more serious tool-related accidents occur every day in workplaces across the country. This 18-minute program covers basic safety rules, procedures, and safeguards for the full range of tools workers encounter on the job — from simple hand tools to electrical, pneumatic, hydraulic, and powder-actuated power tools. Available in English and Spanish.
