An Act requiring OSHA training

HD 160 requires construction employers contracting for residential, commercial, or public projects (subject to federal OSHA oversight) to provide employees with at least 10 hours of OSHA-approved safety training. Employers must also verify independent contractors have completed the required training. Violations incur fines starting at $2,500 for the first offense, increasing to $10,000 for repeat violations, with $25,000 fines for fatalities linked to non-compliance after investigation. The law mandates public posting of violations and establishes a system for reporting, while exempting small projects under $10,000 and homeowner DIY work.
