Training OSHA PSM 1910.119(g)
We deliver initial training before assignment and refresher training at least every three years
Training OSHA
PSM 1910.119(g)
OSHA PSM 1910.119(g) is the foundation of a capable workforce, and our team builds your programme around its three demands. We provide initial training under (g)(1) before anyone is involved in a covered process, refresher training under (g)(2) at intervals no longer than three years or more often when the work calls for it, and documented certification under (g)(3) that confirms each employee has both received and understood the training. The design of this element is simple, yet it fails often in practice. Training cycles slip past the three year mark, generic content fails to fit the actual role, and classroom only delivery never transfers to the field. CSB investigations into incidents involving newer operators or operation after a modification frequently point to exactly these gaps. We close them by combining scenario based simulator training, on the job competency demonstration and an electronic learning management system that keeps every record current.
How the study is executed
A structured, facilitated process that runs from scope definition through close out and produces defensible, actionable outputs.
Per (g)(1), design initial training covering process overview, hazards, procedures, emergency response, align with role requirements.
Per (g)(2), establish minimum 3 year refresher with MOC triggered targeted retraining, track in LMS with expiry alerts.
Classroom for foundation, simulator for emergency response, on the job for procedural, align with Kirkpatrick L1 to 4.
Per (g)(3), document verification, written test, practical demonstration, supervisor signoff, integrate with hiring and promotion.
LMS tracking with expiry alerts, quarterly leadership review of currency, integrate with corporate HR systems.
Targeted retraining triggered by MOC affecting role relevant procedure, integrate with MOC closure gate.
