This interactive distance-learning course is designed to emphasize hazard identification, avoidance and control — not standards, in an effort to train workers on safety issues surrounding the use of hand and power tools. No attempt has been made to treat the topic exhaustively and it is not to be taken as a substitute for any of the provisions of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 or for any standards issued by the US Department of Labor. The course includes a series of quizzes designed to test the contractors grasp of each subject presented.
