Emergency Action Plans in Construction

Learn what an emergency action plan must include, how alarms and evacuation work, and when your employer must train you and review the plan with you.

This certificate records completion of awareness training based on OSHA 29 CFR 1926.35. It is not an OSHA card or license, and it does not by itself meet the training requirements of 29 CFR 1926.35(e). Your employer must still designate and train a sufficient number of persons to assist in the safe and orderly emergency evacuation of employees before implementing the emergency action plan, review the plan with each employee covered by it initially when the plan is developed, whenever the employee's responsibilities or designated actions under the plan change, and whenever the plan is changed, and review with each employee upon initial assignment those parts of the plan which the employee must know to protect the employee in the event of an emergency.
