Nebraska Construction Safety and Ethics 7 PDH Discount Package 1

This online engineering PDH course addesses Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) types, selection and training, as well as conducting a hazard assessment of the workplace.

 

Hazards exist in every workplace in many different scenarios: sharp edges, falling objects, flying sparks, chemicals, noise and a myriad of other potentially dangerous situations. Controlling a hazard at its source is the best way to protect employees. Depending on the hazard or workplace conditions, OSHA recommends the use of engineering or work practice controls to manage or eliminate hazards to the greatest extent possible. Therefore, OSHA developed the Personal Protection Equipment Standard to protect employees from workplace hazards that can cause injury.

 

This 3 PDH online course is applicable to all engineers, employers, building owners, facility managers, and all personnel working on construction projects.

This online engineering PDH course summarizes OSHA's regulations related to underground construction.

 

The construction of underground tunnels, shafts, chambers, and passageways are essential yet dangerous activities. Working under reduced light conditions, difficult or limited access and egress, with the potential for exposure to air contaminants and the hazards of fire and explosion, underground construction workers face many dangers. OSHA recognizes that working in underground environments presents serious hazards to all workers involved. Therefore OSHA developed the underground construction standard to protect the safety and health of underground construction workers.

 

This 3 PDH online course is applicable to employers/business owners, engineers, managers, construction workers and all other personnel involved with underground construction projects.

This online engineering PDH course presents the laws and rules of ethics and professional responsibility governing the practice of engineering in the State of Nebraska. Title 110, Chapter 5, “Code of Practice”, of the Nebraska Rules and Regulations of the Rules, which relate to the laws and rules of profession conduct are presented in this course.

 

Engineering ethics is (1) the study of moral issues and decisions confronting individuals and organizations involved in engineering and (2) the study of related questions about moral conduct, character, ideals and relationships of peoples and organizations involved in technological development (Martin and Schinzinger, Ethics in Engineering).

 

Since engineers are faced with frequent moral and ethical dilemmas while practicing their engineering profession, this course will provide you with moral and ethical guidance in your decision making process. Most importantly, it will provide you with insight on how to conduct, respect and protect your engineering practice with the utmost professionalism.

 

This 1 PDH online course is applicable to Professional Engineers licensed in the State of Nebraska and who are required to demonstrate continuing professional competency in engineering ethics as a condition of their license renewal. For each renewal period, every licensee must complete thirty (30) professional development hours, at least one (1) of which must be relative to the principals of professional responsibility, conduct and ethics.
