FAQs
What Is OSHA 30-Hour General Industry Training?
OSHA 30 General Industry is a supervisor-level safety primer that focuses on the 29 CFR 1910 standard.
What Is the Difference Between OSHA 30-Hour Construction and General Industry?
There are several types of OSHA 30 courses that are designed for specific "industries." The most common "industries" are Construction and General Industry.
OSHA 30 General Industry focuses on §1910, which is the standard that applies to everyone when there's no "industry-specific" rule to override it. It's often recommended for manufacturing, warehousing, and similar high-risk jobs. General Industry training is generally not the best choice for anyone subject to the safety rules specific to construction, maritime, aircraft, mining, and nuclear facilities.
OSHA 30 Construction focuses on the construction-specific standards in §1926, as well as the parts of §1910 that apply. OSHA 30 Construction is better for anyone that regularly performs construction or demolition work.
How Long Is Your OSHA 30-Hour General Industry Card Valid For?
As far as OSHA is concerned, OSHA 30-hour cards never expire. However, some jurisdictions and employers require you to repeat your OSHA Outreach training periodically. They typically consider OSHA 30 General Industry cards to be valid for 3-5 years, but the exact period varies. Check your local laws or ask your employer.
