Research confirms that on the job incidents, accidents, and injuries are more likely to occur with new employees rather than more experienced workers. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) aims to save lives, prevent injuries, and protect the health of America's workers. If the lack of proper training is mostly to blame for higher injury rates, then training should and will help provide a solution.

Southern Safety Services (SSS) offers both OSHA/10hr and OSHA/30hr training courses for construction industry.
