Electrical Safety-Related Work Practices for Workers
Lección 1

For general industry workers who work on, near or with electrical equipment but are not qualified persons: know your limits, treat unlocked parts as live, keep away from overhead lines, work safely near exposed parts, and use the right protection and warnings.

What this certificate covers

This certificate records completion of awareness training based on OSHA 29 CFR 1910.331–1910.335. It is not an OSHA card or license, it does not make you a qualified person, and it does not by itself meet the training requirements of 29 CFR 1910.332. Your employer must still train you, by classroom or on-the-job training matched to the risk to you, in the safety-related work practices that pertain to your job assignment and in any other electrically related safety practices necessary for your safety.

What you will learn

  • Know your limits: tell which electrical work is for qualified persons only
  • Recognize deenergized work done right: treat parts as live until they are locked or tagged and tested, and leave locks and tags alone
  • Keep clear of overhead lines with your body, tools and materials
  • Work safely near exposed live parts: lighting, jewelry, ladders, housekeeping and conductive objects
  • Use protection and heed warnings: protective equipment, insulated tools, signs, barricades and attendants

What you get

  • About 25 minutes, on your phone or computer, read out loud as you go
  • Real photos, not cartoons
  • A hands-on drill: you make the calls, step by step, and see what happens
  • 5 quick checks along the way, then a final quiz
  • A certificate with a QR code your employer can check online
  • A wallet card you can print and carry
  • A printable study guide (PDF)
