Would you like to learn the basics of OSHA from the comfort of your home or office for less than $20?

Before you pay hundreds of dollars to attend a seminar or purchase a thick "how-to" manual, continue reading below...  


Dear Friend:

Since it was created in 1970, OSHA has issued thousands of pages of workplace safety regulations for employers.   The language of many of the regulations isn't clear, so OSHA has also issued hundreds of pages of interpretations of the thousands of pages of regulations.   

And in addition to the regulations and interpretations, OSHA "incorporates by reference" hundreds more published codes and standards.  

Business owners and managers want to provide a safe workplace and comply with OSHA, but learning what's required often seems overwhelming.  If it's any consolation, you're not alone.  With a few exceptions, every business in the U.S. states, territories and jurisdictions must meet the same OSHA requirements. 

That's why we developed OSHA Basics, a straightforward approach that allows you to learn at the time and place of your choosing.   We know you're busy running your business & enjoying your life.  You don't want to have to watch movies, listen to lectures, read manuals hundreds of pages thick, etc. just to learn the basics of OSHA compliance - not to mention the hundreds of dollars in expenses you'll suffer with those methods of learning.   

OSHA Basics follows a simple time-tested principle:

What if...

..on your first day of school in the first grade, your teacher had given you every assignment you had to complete during your 12 years of school in order to graduate after the 12th grade?

Every test, quiz, book report, research assignment, math worksheet, science project, reading requirement, etc.  

You would likely be so overwhelmed you would dread returning to school for day two.    

That's how many people view the process of learning about OSHA - while also being responsible for all their other job duties.

Fortunately, your first grade teacher didn't give you all those assignments the first day.  She started off with the basics such as colors, numbers, alphabet letters, etc.  And then she gradually built upon your knowledge. 

The next year, your second grade teacher picked up where the first grade left off.  And so it continued throughout your school years.

That's what you'll get with OSHA Basics - a starting point, and then a step-by-step learning process, gradually building on each bit of knowledge, to make your job easier and more enjoyable.

OSHA Basics is designed to help you do your job better and to get you through the maze of OSHA regulations and technical jargon.   We're the pioneers of using the power & efficiency of the Internet and email to explain the complexities of OSHA in plain & simple terms. 

Yes, I'm learning things with OSHA Basics they didn't tell me when I took that OSHA 10 hour class last year.

OSHA Compliance is just one of the many responsibilities I have here at work, so I only have so much time to devote to learning.  I'm saving time with your program because I don't have to spend time learning about regulations that don't apply to our business.

Honestly, my favorite part was the explanation of how to find things in the OSHA regulations.  I finally understand how it's done.

OSHA Basics is written in plain English - designed by a professional with more than 2 decades experience helping businesses develop common sense OSHA compliance programs.  We've condensed our half-day and full-day live educational workshops into a series of easy to read email messages, one delivered every few days to your in-box.  With this email course, there won't be any assignments or tests, but each educational message will build on the content provided in previous messages!  The course is designed to help you manage the myriad of OSHA risk & safety concerns.  We put the power of the Internet and email together to save you time, money and to allow you to learn at your pace and at your schedule.

TIP:  Each lesson is in printer-friendly plain text format, so you can keep them in a binder for future reference, or read them by the pool or in your easy chair.

TIP 2:  Many OSHA Basics participants set up a special email folder just for our communications and we suggest you do the same.   If you're busy when a lesson arrives, just ignore it and go back to the lesson when it's convenient.  Or go back and review previous lessons.  You're in complete control.

P.S.  If you're an employee of a business, you probably will someday leave your current employer.  The average length of employment at any one company in the U.S. today is about 7 years.  Imagine the enhancement to your resume and the great impression you'll make during future job interviews when you explain your experience in developing a company OSHA compliance program.  It could be the advantage needed to beat out the other candidates for the job you will seek.  

P.P.S.  Remember, with the course you get our 100% money-back no-questions-asked guarantee.   If you don't think you've received your full money's worth from OSHA Basics, all you have to do is ask us for a refund within 60-days of the date you started.   We'll refund your full payment without question - that's our ironclad guarantee.

P.P.P.S. One OSHA-Basics customer, a woman who is the personnel manager for a small family-owned business, had previously purchased a manual that was supposed to simplify the OSHA regulations.  She explained how the manual was twice as thick as the OSHA regulations but was marketed as an OSHA simplification tool.  Another customer purchased some type of OSHA compliance CD software and it caused his computer to freeze again and again.   These things won't happen with OSHA Basics - there are no thick manuals to purchase and no software to install.  Start Now!
