e-Hazard Provides Remote, Web-Based Live Electrical Safety Training
With the COVID-19 crisis at hand, we understand that many companies are looking to fill this time with productive work that can be completed at home or in proper isolation.

This method of training meets OSHA requirements by providing an SME, which is missing in most “online training.”
