EXTENSIONS & RELAXATION OF THE 7-YEAR REQUIREMENT END OCTOBER 10TH

Extensions & Relaxation of the 7-Year Requirement End October 10th

In response to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the OSHA Directorate of Training and Education relaxed some of their requirements. The re-institution of the 90-day grace period and the relaxation on the requirement for OSHA Outreach Trainers to have completed the applicable standards course within the past seven years if your authorization expired are being reinstated. Effective October 10, 2022, no extensions will be granted and the requirement to retake the applicable standards course if your OSHA Outreach Authorization expires and you have not taken the training in the past seven years will be enforced.
