  Course Summary: Working in extreme cold or wet weather makes every job outside more difficult and dangerous. There is understandable confusion – does OSHA apply ‘rules’ or is it ‘guidance’? Is this a federal mandate or does my State law take precedence?
  o Is it the law or just plain good common sense?
  Course outline This is a ONE hour class. Some WI service providers are single business owners or have perhaps a couple of family members as employees, but some are sizable operations with many franchises.

  o There is a lamentable cavalier attitude toward safety and safety training – the ‘it will never happen to me’ mentality. But onsite wastewater service personnel are exposed to multiple safety hazard exposures, especially during winter, with increased exposure from either adding a non approved layer or ignoring PPE gear altogether in winter.
