What this certificate covers

This certificate records completion of awareness training based on OSHA 29 CFR 1926.800(b) through (k), (m), (n) and (o). It is not an OSHA card or license, it does not make anyone a competent person or a rescue team member, and it does not by itself meet the training requirements of 29 CFR 1926.800(d). Your employer must still instruct all employees in the recognition and avoidance of hazards associated with underground construction activities including, where appropriate, air monitoring; ventilation; illumination; communications; flood control; mechanical equipment; personal protective equipment; explosives; fire prevention and protection; and emergency procedures, including evacuation plans and check-in/check-out systems. Rescue team members must also be qualified in rescue procedures, the use and limitations of breathing apparatus, and the use of firefighting equipment, as required by 29 CFR 1926.800(g)(5)(iii).

  • Use access controls and the check-in/check-out system
  • Describe communications and emergency provisions, including self-rescuers
  • Explain potentially gassy and gassy classifications and air monitoring triggers
