Is OSHA 10 Hour Training Mandatory?

Is OSHA 10 Hour Training Mandatory?
OSHA does not require employees to take an OSHA course, so it is considered voluntary training. However, there are many other government agencies, businesses, and contractors around the country who make this training mandatory for workers to access their work sites. In addition, there are now seven states (Rhode Island, Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Missouri, Nevada) who have recently enacted laws that make the OSHA 10 and 30 hour construction courses mandatory to work on certain construction sites in their states or cities.
