Association Has Launched 18 Modules Developed Following OSHA
Guidelines
NATA has just made its 18 "Safety 1st" safety and health
training modules available online. These modules were developed
using the Occupational Safety and Health Administration's (OSHA)
standards and regulations and are specifically designed to train
employees at aviation businesses.
NATA's 18 modules include back safety, bloodborne pathogens,
cold stress, ergonomics, fall protection, fire extinguishers,
forklift safety, hazard communication, hearing conservation, heat
stress, ladder safety, lockout tagout, machine guarding, office
safety, personal protective equipment and respiratory protection.
Companies can buy only those modules applicable to their job. From
office workers to maintenance technicians, line service personnel,
pilots and more, the modules allow the user to create a curriculum
that best meets their job requirements. Each module averages 30 to
45 minutes in length and all 18 modules can be completed in
approximately 10 hours.
"The best news about this online training is that it is
available any time your employees want to train and it can be
accessed using existing Safety 1st online training credentials,
said NATA Director of Safety and Training Amy Koranda. "With 18
modules to choose from, employees can take their time going through
training concepts and, once complete, run through a quick exam to
confirm their training."
