Illinois OSHA Safety Training
OSHA Safety Training Programs in Illinois are centered around federal OSHA essential safety programs. These courses are part of the OSHA Outreach Training Program for construction and non-construction workers. Illinois is not a State Plan state, so employers operate under the federal guidelines established under the OSH Act of 1970. The OSHA General Duty Clause mandates that all companies provide a safe environment for their workers.
The Illinois Department of Labor is charged with regulation enforcement and compliance under the Illinois Occupational Safety and Health Act. This law Protects the lives, health and safety of public workers by educating employees and employers about safe working conditions and by controlling or eliminating occupational hazards.
