.

Goals

I. Develop standardized training that builds upon the worker orientation program by convening a forum for industry and education partners to provide input in the development of the proposed Oil and Gas OSHA Outreach Program.

II. Partner education with industry to assess hazards by job tasks across all E&P business units.

III. Develop measurable learning objectives that are relevant to industry in maintaining a safe work environment.

IV. Be a resource for industry personnel by providing guidance in safety and health standards. V. Prepare qualified instructors to include expectations of continuing education and ongoing assessment of their capacity to effectively teach safe workplace practices.

Action Plan

Consider three levels of worker training to achieve worker proficiency

I. Field PersonnelII. Field Supervisor and/or consulting on-

sight supervisorIII. Management/Leadership with

responsibilities for worksite safety compliance and reporting

Each level of training should offer coursework to prepare competent workers based on the hazards that exists in the primary Oil and Gas E & P Job Families:

Definition of OSHA Outreach Program

The OSHA Outreach Training Program provides training for workers and employers on the recognition, avoidance, abatement, and prevention of safety and health hazards in workplaces. The program also provides information workers' rights, employer responsibilities, and how to file a complaint. This is a voluntary program and does not meet training requirements for any OSHA standards.

Through this program, workers can attend *10-hour or *30-hour classes delivered by OSHA-authorized trainers. The 10-hour class is intended for entry level workers, while the 30-hour class is more appropriate for supervisors or workers with some safety responsibility. Through this training, OSHA helps to ensure that workers are more knowledgeable about workplace hazards and their rights, and contribute to our nation's productivity.

*Current courses duration. Courses will be based on competencies first aligned with tasks and associated hazards. Meeting hours are subordinate to time required to adequately prepare proficient workers

Re Affirm consensus in the development of an Outreach Program specific to the oil and gas industry.
