Full Day Course
MTI Level One and Two Elective Construction Course
Course Description:
Mobile equipment is used in most construction job sites today. Workers need to employ safe work practices while working with and around these powerful machines in order to not get caught in their deadly grasp. Construction sites are also near or within the roadways of public traffic. Work zone safety through communication to the public vehicle driver, work protocol, and planning is important to saving the lives of this growing workforce. This course provides knowledge of best practices, MIOSHA standards, and a brief overview of referenced 2005 Michigan Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MMUTCD) through a presentation, interactive instruction, practical exercises, and discussion with a knowledgeable instructor. This training session will provide attendees with job site hazard identification and evaluation knowledge. Mobile equipment safety topics include motor vehicles, material handling, and training requirements. Work zone safety topics include traffic control devices, signage, plans, and employee training.
