OSHA "10-Hour Card" Training Sessions by Spooner

The safety team at Spooner will be hosting OSHA 10hr Training sessions throughout Ohio in November and December. The training sessions will provide leadership, management, and workers with a solid understanding of occupational safety and health standards. The sessions are great for those new to safety or who want to refresh their safety training knowledge. Upon completion of the course, participants will be issued OSHA "10 Hour Cards" which are both recognized and encouraged by regulatory agencies. The cost to attend the 2 day courses is $199.

You can check training session times and dates and register online here.

Reminder: The OSHA 10hr course will also satisfy the 2hr safety requirement for companies participating in group rating and group retrospective rating in the 2014 policy year. Spooner will schedule 2hr safety training sessions for the 2014 policy year in the spring of 2015 but the OSHA 10hr course is an opportunity to satisfy the 2hr requirement sooner rather than later.

A common question employers ask is if someone slips in the parking lot walking into the office - do they have a claim? The first thing we ask is who owns the parking lot? If the company owns the parking lot it would be a claim. The employee is within the course and scope of their employment, they are walking in, and slip and fall. That is a workers comp claim. If some other third-party company owns the building and is leasing it, then it can potentially be a property and casualty claim. But

In our video series, Jacqui and Joe talk about what Spooner Inc. does to save you money and how it all works. Today were talking about the 15k program and how it can save you money. Watch or read the transcription below! What is the 15k program? The 15k program is a great program that the bureau rolls out. It is another way for a company to potentially mitigate their risk on a claim. When we say that, we mentioned in another video, that there are safe driver claims (watch here) and those claims stick with you for four or five years down the road. That impact can be more significant than what the bureau actually pays for. The 15k program is for group rated employers who are safe drivers.
