Disclaimer

ToolboxKits is an independent business run by ALC Media LLC. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) or the U.S. Department of Labor.

OSHA does not approve, certify or endorse training materials, including ours.

Our talks, kits, guides and tools explain safety rules in plain words. They are training aids, not legal advice. For a legal question about your business, talk to a lawyer or a qualified safety professional.

Using our material does not by itself make a workplace compliant. Each employer must make sure its training covers the hazards of its work, the equipment its workers use, and every standard that applies. Some standards also require hands-on practice, evaluations by a competent or qualified person, or written records.

Many states run their own job safety and health programs under OSHA (state plans). Their rules can be stricter or different from the federal rules we cite. If you work in a state plan state, check its rules too.

The scenarios in our talks are hypothetical examples, written to start a conversation. They are not real incidents.

Talks on first aid, heat, fatigue, mental health and similar topics give general information. They are not medical advice. In an emergency, call 911.

Our Spanish versions are written to sound natural to a crew, so they are not word-for-word translations. The official text of OSHA regulations is in English.

We link to official sources such as ecfr.gov and osha.gov. We are not responsible for the content of other sites.
