Employees will learn how to recognize the dangers of electricity, possible electrical injuries, and how to use standard hazard controls. This course is geared towards California employees who work regularly with electrical equipment, including equipment maintenance and repair. Employers can use this course to help meet the requirements of Cal/OSHA and Federal OSHA standards.
