This course meets the educational requirements for federal OSHA Scaffold Standard training.

Not everyone can work on suspended scaffolds; OSHA requires you to go through proper training if your job involves inspecting or operating suspended scaffolds. Our expert-level Suspended Scaffold training for Competent persons or Supervisors is for those whose job is to oversee and supervise the workers operating on these scaffolds. This helps in minimizing the risks of injury and creates a safe workplace environment for everyone at the construction site. On the other hand, Suspended Scaffold User training is essential for anyone who handles or works with suspended scaffolds. All three courses are up-to-date, convenient, and available to access online at the best prices.

Learning Outcomes:

  • In this course, students will explore New York City Construction Codes and OSHA Regulations as it pertains to supervision of suspended scaffolds. Participants learn the most current suspended scaffold standards, including guidance on how to read scaffold design drawings, how to verify the fitness of the rigging crew, properly train workers on related hazards, and also how to identify and respond to emergency
