OSHA 10-HOUR TRAINING ONLINE

The cost of OSHA 10-Hour training varies slightly depending on the course type and language. As of the most recent pricing, the OSHA 10-Hour Construction Training course and the OSHA 10-Hour General Industry Training course are both typically priced between $60 and $89 for the English versions. These OSHA 10 online courses are competitively priced to make safety training more accessible for workers across industries. 

Spanish-language versions are also available at similar price points, including the OSHA 10-Hour Construction Spanish course and the OSHA 10-Hour General Industry Spanish course. 

All course options—whether English or Spanish—lead to the same OSHA 10 training certificate and are fully compliant with OSHA’s Outreach Training Program requirements. There are no hidden fees, and most prices include access to the course, customer support, and the official Department of Labor (DOL) OSHA 10 card issued upon successful completion.

The OSHA 10-Hour course is designed to take a total of 10 hours to complete. However, OSHA regulations require that students take no more than 7.5 hours of training per day, meaning the course is typically completed over two or more sessions. This applies to both the OSHA 10 online course and classroom-based options. Most users complete their 10-hour OSHA training online within a few days.

The type of OSHA 10-Hour course you need depends on your industry. For construction-related jobs, choose the OSHA 10-Hour Construction course. For non-construction roles in general workplaces like manufacturing or healthcare, the OSHA 10-Hour General Industry course is the right choice.

Yes, all OSHA 10-Hour courses issued through OSHA.com are valid and recognized by employers nationwide. These courses are part of the OSHA Outreach Training Program and are conducted by authorized trainers. Upon successful completion, students receive an official OSHA 10 card, issued by the Department of Labor (DOL), which validates their OSHA 10-hour training.

For the most reliable and up-to-date information about OSHA 10-Hour training requirements, visit the official OSHA website. It offers comprehensive guidance on regulatory standards, industry-specific training requirements, and compliance expectations under the OSHA Outreach Training Program. 

Additionally, our website provides detailed overviews of OSHA 10 online courses, including both construction and general industry options, to help you understand how each course meets federal training and safety standards.

Both the OSHA 10 and OSHA 30 Outreach Training programs are designed to promote workplace safety, but they serve different roles. 

The OSHA 10-Hour course is intended for entry-level or non-supervisory workers and covers basic safety topics relevant to either construction or general industry. 

By comparison, the OSHA 30-Hour Training goes deeper, providing comprehensive safety education tailored for supervisors, managers, and safety personnel. That page lists all available OSHA 30 training courses, including both construction and general industry options offered online. This extended course includes supervisory responsibilities and a broader range of workplace hazard topics. 

OSHA designed its 10-hour Outreach courses to serve as an orientation to workplace safety for non-supervisory workers. It's a consistent but flexible training program that can be tailored to the worker's environment and job.

OSHA 10 doesn't fulfill or replace required OSHA training, but many employers require an OSHA 10 card because it gives everyone a solid foundation to build on. This is especially true in Construction, which has one of the highest incidents of occupational injury, illness, and death.

Aside from employer requirements, sometimes an OSHA 10 card is a legal requirement for Construction work. These laws are constantly changing, but you legally need an OSHA 10 Construction card in:

• Nevada (effective January 1, 2010)
• Philadelphia, PA (effective October 1, 2015)
• Connecticut (for certain public projects)
• Miami-Dade County, FL (for certain public or private projects)
• Massachusetts (for most public projects)
• Missouri (for public projects)
• New Hampshire (for certain public projects)
• New York City (Local Law 196 of 2017)
• New York State (effective July 18, 2008)
• Rhode Island (for certain public projects)
• West Virginia (for certain public projects)

For all these reasons, OSHA 10 training can also be a good investment for a construction worker looking for a job. Many employers will give hiring preference to candidates with a DOL card, even if they don't require it.

You will receive your plastic official OSHA DOL card as soon as two (2) weeks after you complete your course and survey. The card is mailed via USPS First Class to the mailing address in your profile.

Once you successfully complete the course a pop-up will appear and you can print or download the certificate of completion to your computer, smartphone, or tablet. While you're waiting for your DOL card to arrive, you can use the certificate of completion as proof you have successfully completed the course.
 

As far as OSHA is concerned, OSHA 10 cards don't expire. However, jurisdictions or employers that require it typically set a refresher period (often 3-5 years).

Since the refresher period varies, your DOL card will simply have an issue date, not an expiration date. You can use the issue date to check whether your OSHA 10 card is still valid for your needs.

Some businesses may refuse to recognize your OSHA card if it was issued more than five years ago. Any additional training will be subject to specific employer responsibilities.

While there's no official "OSHA certification," completing an authorized program earns you an official DOL card. Although not universally required, specific states and employers mandate it.
 

A DOL card is an official card issued by the US Department of Labor (DOL) to those who have completed a 10-Hour Outreach Training Program. These cards are required in some states and by various employers.

You can either complete training for construction or general industry. The cards are either bright yellow for construction or light blue for general industry.

You can download a certificate of completion as soon as you finish the course. While you wait for your OSHA 10 DOL card to arrive in the mail, you can show your employer the certificate to indicate you finished your course.
