One Day SafeLandUSA 2021 Basic Orientation
SafeLandUSA 2021 Basic orientation explains the hazards that workers may encounter in the oil and gas industry along with the various practices employed to mitigate those hazards. This SafeLandUSA and SafeGulf accredited one-day safety orientation also meets 30CFR 250 and API RP T-1 requirements. Students will also gain a clear understanding of their rights under OSHA and how those rights apply to their workplace.
In the days before SafeLand, the oil and gas industry would have to pull untrained workers and send them directly to the rig site. It was often the case that new hires would go straight to work with very little training if any. The phenomenon of drinking from a firehose has given the oil and gas industry a reputation of being both challenging and dangerous. While on the job training will always be important in the oilfield, pre-job oil and gas training is becoming more and more important and safety records reflect those efforts.
