Training Language and Comprehension

OSHA requires that fall protection training be provided in a language and vocabulary that employees can understand. This means employers must ensure that employees fully comprehend the training content.

If you’re training Spanish-speaking workers, you must provide them with Spanish lockout/tagout training. Providing English-language training to workers who don’t speak English does not meet OSHA’s fall protection training requirements.

This bilingualfall protection training package specifically helps you meet this requirement to ensure OSHA compliance for both English and Spanish workers.
