Qualified Electrical Worker Training Is Provided By ESS Nationwide

Qualified Electrical Worker training is required by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and NFPA70E for anyone working on or near energized equipment greater than 50 volts. Employing qualified personnel will reduce the company’s liability, lost time injuries, death and costly OSHA citations. Qualified Electrical Worker training students will be trained, tested, documented and certified in all the requirements necessary to be deemed qualified by the employer.

 

Electrical Safety Specialists will send a trainer to anywhere in the United States to conduct on-site training for Qualified Electrical Worker training personnel on OSHA, NFPA70E, IEEE 1584, NFPA70, ANSI, and American Red Cross, combined with individualized hands-on exercises in proficiency of skills and a written exam. Qualified Electrical Worker training students will receive a folder containing Certificate of Achievement, training summary, along with written and photo documentation of proficiency for employer’s permanent records as required by OSHA.
