About us
In the 1970's, our founder was crippled in a mining accident. His training for the job consisted of 45 minutes of instructions on how to drive a TEREX rock truck fully loaded up and down a mountain. The training was inadequate and am paying the consequences for the rest of my life. We understand that an injured employee and his employer are not the only ones affected by an incident. Entire families are affected, many times for generations. That's why we are in this business, to make training available (and affordable) for anyone to assist in preventing injuries at work or home.

Emergency Planning
Frequently Asked Questions
The course is based on OSHA standard 1910.38, the Emergency Action Plan requirement that applies to workplace emergency preparedness documentation.
The course stresses that having an action plan is an important part of emergency preparedness, but writing one down is only the first step, not the finish line.
Beyond documentation, the course teaches that an Emergency Action Plan must actually function when needed, so learners are pushed to verify it works rather than assume it does.
A plan that only exists on paper hasn't been tested against real conditions, so the course frames writing it as necessary but insufficient for genuine preparedness.
The core takeaway is that emergency preparedness depends on a workable plan, not merely a documented one, tying back to the requirements of OSHA 1910.38.
1910.38 - Emergency Action Plan: Having an action plan is an important part of emergency preparedness. However, merely writing one isn’t enough. You also have to make sure it is workable.
