| DOT Audit Checklist |
08:48 |
If your organization does any shipping or transport across state lines in the United States, you’re subject to the Department of Transportation’s rules. And along with this comes DOT audits to make sure you’re following those rules and regulations. An audit can be a frightening thing if you’re not prepared for it. So, in this program, we’re going to go over a checklist of documents you’ll need to have ready for each part of a DOT audit. We’ll also discuss what causes an audit, the various types, and how they are scored. |
| First Aid: Bug Bites and Stings |
11:55 |
Whether you work inside or outside, dangerous insects can be found anywhere. It’s important that you know what these bugs are, how they look, and where they reside. You should also be aware of the symptoms of their bites and stings, and how to administer first aid for them. In this course, we’ll discuss some of the most common dangerous bugs in North America and help you understand how to treat their bites and stings. |
| First Aid: EpiPens and Allergic Reactions |
06:20 |
Allergic reactions are very commonplace. Some people react mildly to certain products or foods. Perhaps they’re left with only a rash, or itching and hives. Others have severe reactions, like anaphylaxis, which if left untreated, can lead to death. How do you know if someone is experiencing anaphylaxis? What can cause it? What are EpiPens, and how do they work? That’s what this program will teach you. |
| First Aid: Strokes |
07:09 |
When you think of first aid situations that can arise, one of the most common and frightening that probably comes to mind is someone having a stroke. But what exactly is a stroke? And what can you do if you or someone around you has one? How will you even know if they’re having one? In this program, we’ll go over all these topics, so you’ll be better-prepared to assist in first aid situations involving strokes. |
| First Aid: Mammal Bites and Scratches |
07:13 |
Whether you’re working in someone else’s yard or on your own property, you should be aware of the dangers of bites and scratches from various mammals, the most common being dogs and cats. In this program, we’ll go over how to treat such wounds, when to seek professional medical attention, and what to do about rabies. |
| First Aid: Snake Bites |
08:57 |
If you work outdoors, especially if you work with debris or moving rocks and logs, there’s a chance you’ll encounter a snake at some point. You might even be bitten by one. Luckily, only 20% of snakes in North America are venomous. But if you do happen to get bitten by a venomous snake, the results can be deadly. In this course, we’ll talk about proper first aid for a venomous snake bite. |
| First Aid: AED Training |
05:12 |
If you’ve ever watched a medical show on television, then you’ve likely seen a defibrillator in action. A defibrillator is used to shock a person’s irregular heart rhythm back into normal rhythm. An Automated External Defibrillator, or AED, is a miniature version of that. AEDs are placed strategically in public places like schools, gyms, restaurants, and offices, in case of emergencies. An AED device will measure someone’s heart rate and rhythm on its own to determine if a shock is needed. In this program, we’ll go over when and how to use an AED. We’ll discuss what to do if someone becomes unconscious, including checking for breathing and performing CPR. We’ll go over who you can use an AED on and the steps to using one properly. |
| First Aid: Seizures |
07:39 |
According to the CDC, one in 10 people will have a seizure in their lifetime. Therefore, the odds of you being witness to one of these medical events are pretty high. In this course, we’ll discuss how to administer first aid to someone who’s having a seizure. We’ll go over the symptoms to look out for, the most common type of seizure, and when to call 911. We’ll also cover some do’s and don'ts of seizure first aid, so you’re informed and prepared if someone near you has an episode. |
| First Aid: Diabetes |
08:36 |
More than 30 million people in the U.S. have diabetes, with another 84 million in the prediabetic range. Chances are, you know someone with diabetes, so how do you recognize diabetic emergencies? How do you administer first aid? In this course, we’ll define diabetes and go over its three types. We’ll talk about how to recognize the various symptoms associated with diabetic episodes, and how to provide aid for each instance. We’ll also talk about when it’s time to call 911. |
| First Aid: Toxic Plants |
09:49 |
If you work outdoors, you may have encountered toxic plants at some point. The kind that give you a rash and leave you with that terrible itch for a week. No one wants that. In this program, we’ll talk about the plants you ought to avoid, how to take precautions to avoid being harmed, and the first aid steps you should take if you or someone else IS exposed to these plants. |
| First Aid: Introduction to First Aid |
08:52 |
We take precautions everyday to try and stay safe, but accidents happen. Whether you slip and fall in the rain, or step on a rusty nail, or come in contact with a harmful substance, there are a number of scenarios that we can run into at any time. In this first program about First Aid, we’ll cover information that is helpful if someone has an accident or gets hurt on the job. The information involves basic first aid measures to keep someone stable, or comfortable, until they can seek proper medical attention. |
| First Aid: Broken Bones |
05:40 |
We know accidents are going to happen, and some accidents are going to be more serious than others. A pretty serious injury could involve a fracture or a completely broken bone. These are not always easy to detect. But knowing if someone has a broken bone can help you get them the medical attention they need sooner rather than later. In this program, we’ll discuss the different types of fractures, their causes, symptoms, and how you can help treat them before they receive medical attention. |
| First Aid: Burns |
06:06 |
If you work in an office, your risk of getting burned at work isn’t that high. While you may not get burned at the office, you might be burned outside of work and that could affect your daily workload. It’s important that you know the types of burns, the risks, and how to treat burns, which is what we’ll cover in this program. Most people can recover from burns without serious health consequences, depending on the cause and the degree of the injury. More serious burns will require medical attention. |
| First Aid Bites, Cuts, and Scrapes |
06:57 |
Bites, cuts, and scrapes are pretty common. It’s a part of first aid and you need to know what to do if this happens to you or a colleague at work. In this program, we’ll go over insect bites and stings, animal and human bites, and cuts and scrapes. We’ll discuss how to treat these and when it’s important to seek medical attention. |
| First Aid: Choking |
03:04 |
Choking is a serious situation, and while the chances of successfully helping a victim are high, it can be life threatening. You need to know exactly what to do in order to help the person. This course is designed to walk you through how to determine if someone is choking, and what to do to assist them. |
| What is OSHA? |
03:53 |
When learning about workplace safety, you will hear the term “OSHA” frequently. That’s because the purpose of OSHA is to keep workers safe. In this course, we’ll learn more about this entity and its very important mission. |

| Confined Spaces for Employees: 01. Personnel Responsibilities |
06:50 |
Every year, more than a million and a half American workers perform duties in confined spaces. And, every year, more than 100 people die as a result. These statistics are disturbing. You need to understand the importance of this course and all the confined space courses. In this program, we're going to cover how having the right personnel in place, with proper training, can enhance safety! We'll also discuss permit-required confined spaces and key roles and responsibilities. |
| Confined Spaces for Employees: 02. Understanding Permits |
05:49 |
If your work dictates that you sometimes need to enter a permit-required confined space, this course is for you. In this course, we'll define permit-required confined spaces, discuss the permit procedure and what it entails, we'll talk about the entry supervisor's responsibilities when it comes to permits, and what information a permit should address. We'll also touch on when a new permit is required, permit cancellations, and the exception to permit requirements. |
| Confined Spaces for Employees: 03. Atmospheric Hazards |
08:11 |
Atmospheric hazards can range from reduced oxygen levels, noxious fumes, flammable gases, combustible dust, or potentially lethal gases that can be undetectable by even the most experienced workers. They can render a person unconscious within seconds or minutes. In this course, we want to take you through each of the possible hazards and discuss what they are, how they originate, what the impacts are, and the testing that the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires to detect them. We'll also go over what to do if dangerous levels are found. |
| Confined Spaces for Employees: 04. Personal Protective Equipment |
05:12 |
Working in confined spaces in inherently risky. Anytime someone enters these spaces, their risk of injury increases. Personal Protective Equipment, or PPE, can help protect people from injury. In this course, we'll go over the different types of PPE one might use when working in confined spaces. We'll discuss where to go to find out what equipment you'll need and who should provide it. We'll also talk about cleaning and maintenance, routine tests, and what to do when PPE is defective. |
| Confined Spaces for Employees: 05. Confined Spaces for Construction |
05:14 |
In 2015, when the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) decided to create a separate confined spaces standard for the construction industry, officials said they hoped to save 780 lives every year. With the development of the rule, the administration recognized that construction is a unique industry with its own unique challenges. It's recommend that all construction employees participate in the full training on confined spaces for general industry. This course is essential for construction because it points out the differences between the two standards. However, you'll still need to view these other courses to ensure full compliance. |
| Confined Spaces for Employers: 01. Rules and Responsibilities |
07:16 |
Being trapped in a confined space as poisonous gas fills the air sounds like a nightmare, right? This could be a potential reality because more than 1.5 million American workers are sometimes required to work in confined spaces. The atmosphere in a confined space can become hazardous quickly. Accidents can cause workers to be buried alive, or flash flooding can occur. Of all the workplace fatalities tracked by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), about 3% occur in confined spaces due to asphyxiation, drowning, or explosions. As an employer, you need to understand how serious these situations are. Moving forward, we're going to highlight key aspects of the OSHA confined spaces standard. If you're in charge of compliance at your organization, it's highly recommended that you read the entire standard and check state and local regulations. |
| Confined Spaces for Employers: 02. Emergency Procedures and Rescue |
06:09 |
When it comes to confined space rescues, emergency planning and rescue protocols can greatly influence the outcome. In fact, proper planning could mean the difference between a rescue and an avoidable tragedy. The federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) estimates there are about 100 deaths in confined spaces every year. These occur across a variety of industries, but more than 60% of the fatalities are would-be rescuers. And while we all know that different confined spaces have their own unique challenges, OSHA points to poor planning as a leading cause of fatalities. Some rescues are unsuccessful because the rescuers don't fully understand the environment they're entering or the on-site team is unprepared to help. In this course, we're going to talk about what employers need to know when planning for a rescue. It's important to begin by noting that, regardless of your industry, a documented, written emergency response plan is required by OSHA for permit-required confined spaces. |
| Safety for Managers: Powered Industrial Trucks for Managers |
04:57 |
Powered industrial trucks are tremendous workplace tools. Because these trucks operate like so many other vehicles in your life, it's easy to underestimate the safety concerns. It's up to you to make sure that they remain useful and safe for your employees. |
| Safety for Managers: Machine Guard Safety for Managers |
04:52 |
Modern machinery offers us incredible advantages in the workplace. American workers are able to work faster and more efficiently than ever before. However, according to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the risks can be tremendous. First and foremost, your job as a manager is to provide the required hands-on training for employees. Even the most elaborate safety devices or guards won't protect workers unless they are used correctly. |
| Safety for Managers: Flammable and Combustible Liquids for Managers |
05:50 |
If your employees are working with flammable and combustible liquids, the stakes are high. As a manager or supervisor, it's your role to ensure that all of these volatile liquids are stored, handled, and used safely. |
| Safety for Managers: Carbon Dioxide for Managers |
05:06 |
You likely learned about carbon dioxide, or CO2, in middle school chemistry. It's one part carbon and two parts oxygen. Because it's a part of the carbon cycle, CO2 is in very low concentrations all around us. This program will help you keep your workplace safe from carbon dioxide exposure. |
| Safety for Managers: Carbon Monoxide for Managers |
06:26 |
Carbon monoxide, or CO, is a common industrial hazard. Your workplace is considered at-risk if you regularly have vehicles idling near employees. Your facility is also at-risk if you have machinery that burns natural gas or any other material containing carbon. |
| Safety for Managers: Propane Gas Safety for Managers |
04:16 |
Propane is a cost-effective, efficient, and highly flammable fuel used at many facilities across the United States. As an employer, you have some hefty responsibilities when it comes to propane in the workplace. |
| Safety for Employees: Machine Guard Safety for Employees |
04:52 |

However, working with these machines carries an inherent risk. Take the safety steps recommended here and in your on-the-job training seriously -- every time you use a machine. |
| Safety for Employees: Flammable and Combustible Liquids for Employees |
05:39 |
If you're working with flammable and combustible liquids. The stakes are high. Fires stemming from ignition of these liquids can cause injuries, burns, environmental damage and, in some cases, even death. As an employee, it's essential that you learn how to safely store, dispense, and handle these liquids. |
| Safety for Employees: Carbon Dioxide for Employees |
04:24 |
People inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. This odorless, colorless compound is not poisonous, but it can be dangerous in two ways. First, in its gaseous state, CO2 displaces oxygen, so it can cause suffocation in high concentrations. Second, carbon dioxide in its solid state, also known as dry ice, can cause frostbite if it comes in contact with the skin. |
| Safety for Employees: Carbon Monoxide for Employees |
05:40 |
Carbon monoxide is a common industrial hazard. It's the byproduct of internal combustion engines, like the ones we find in regular vehicles, diesel engines, or forklifts. Carbon monoxide, or CO, is also the result of the incomplete burning of natural gas and any other material containing carbon. This means that some pretty standard appliances, like water heaters, space heaters, propane cooking ranges, or blast furnaces might have a carbon monoxide risk -- especially if they aren't properly maintained. |
| Safety for Employees: Propane Gas Safety for Employees |
04:09 |
Even if you're new to your industry, you're probably familiar with propane. Propane tanks are commonplace at local hardware stores, as a fuel for backyard grills or camping stoves. Before you use propane in the workplace, you'll need hands-on training. |
| Safety Culture for Employees |
05:01
|
We all have a role to play in promoting a safe and healthy work environment. Developing a culture of safety can lead to lower rates of accidents and injuries, improved morale, and increased productivity. So, how can we, as employees, contribute to this culture? The ideal culture is one where every single person understands and adheres to safety initiatives, in addition to prioritizing safety on a daily basis.
