Default OSHA Safety Training

How many of you guys have gone through OSHA safety training? When I worked as a construction manager at Lennar Homes I had to go through safety training and it was worth the time spent.

I went to the Free 10 Hour course this past spring sponsored by the NRCA and yes, I too felt it was well worth it.

If they offer it again, I will gladly attend. (For Free)

I went twice and thought it to be pretty much a waste of my time. Its driven by the white collar insurance company bureaucrats.

I have been through many classes through out the years, none recently tho.

They have so much to offer on thier website now that I haven't felt the need for a class.
