New! Virtual Safety Manager

The Virtual Safety Manager (VSM) is a web based comprehensive OSHA compliance service. Backed by expert support and on-going updates from National Safety Council’s (NSC) safety compliance team, VSM is a thorough and effective tool for developing and administering a compliant safety and health program. It’s like having the best compliance consultants at your fingertips, day or night.

Many companies don’t know they are in violation of OSHA safety standards until it’s too late. On average, OSHA conducts around 40,000 inspections and cites nearly 90,000 violations per year. The lack of a comprehensive and up-to-date safety program can be both costly and dangerous.

An effective way to manage safety and health compliance

NSC’s Virtual Safety Manager enables companies large and small to develop site specific OSHA compliant safety programs that include employee safety manuals and procedures, training programs, record keeping, reporting, Industrial Hygiene documentation, and a company-wide portal of safety resources.

VSM delivers

A properly designed and managed safety program leads to better trained employees, safer workplace habits, fewer accidents, and fewer workers’ compensation claims. VSM is not a one-time safety workshop or the occasional compliance audit. It is the core of a company’s successful safety and health program, always up-to-date, and always “on.” VSM supports development and growth of a safety culture, and reflects corporate leadership’s commitment to safety. VSM is professional safety management around the clock, for far less than the cost of employing a full time safety professional.

Two new programs from the National Safety Council

NEW! Supervisors’ Safety Development Program

Teach supervisors how to integrate safety into their daily management process

Every department from office operations to shipping and receiving is under the watch of your first line of management — your supervisors. No other group has this kind of hands-on, daily presence to influence behavior, which makes them a key part of your safety management system.

Whether your supervisors and managers are new to their safety responsibilities or are due for “refresher” safety training or specialized skills, NSC has the program they need to make an impact on the rest of your organization.

Supervisors’ Safety Development Program incorporates the latest research to addresses the practical needs of today’s organizations. The program includes 16 modules that can be taught in any order. Each module focuses on critical requirements for workplace safety improvement and includes management approaches and regulatory issues that apply.

Developed to comply with best safety practices common to most of the 29CFR guidelines (1910, 1926, 1915, and 1928).... including 1960 elements:

1960.9 Supervisory Responsibilities
1960.10 Employee Responsibilities and Rights
1960.16 Compliance with OSHA Guidelines
1960.26 Safety Inspections
1960.29 Accident Investigations

You'll learn... leadership and management philosophies, empowering employees, self-directed teams, hazard control and risk reduction, and other effective practices that help improve and sustain safety performance.

Conduct the training yourself

Supervisors’ Safety Development Program is packaged training designed to be conducted by facilitators — safety managers, HR managers, safety team members or staff trainers. Even if you've never conducted training before, the facilitator kit gives you the tools and confidence to successfully deliver the program. You can teach the program in as little as three or four days, or teach modules in any order over time.

Automated External Defibrillator (AED)

In the United States, more than 250,000 people die from sudden cardiac arrest. Many die because an AED was not immediately available to correct the patient's heart rhythm.

Now there is a way to change that. An AED is a simple to use defibrillator, that in seconds can make the difference in an cardiac emergency.

Helping you save lives, by giving first responders the tools to act quickly in a cardiac emergency. The National Safety Council, Greater Omaha Chapter offers both the Philips and Zoll AEDs.

Training Kits

The Forklift Workshop is a new, innovative approach to training forklift operators — new and veteran — on proper forklift safety procedures, as required by OSHA’s 29 CFR Section 1910.178(l).

In the workshop format, your operators will watch an engaging DVD video presentation, demonstrating proper forklift techniques in action. Then, you’ll be able to reinforce their learning using hands-on practice tools, exercises and learning activities.

Designed to address the training needs of forklift operators with any level of experience, this easy-to-use training program helps you fulfill the classroom and practical training requirements of OSHA 1910.178(l). Also helps you meet initial and refresher training needs and conduct effective evaluations.

The Forklift Workshop training program covers:

Forklift basics (types, rear steering, turning radius, combined center of gravity and the stability triangle, load center and controls)
Inspecting your forklift
Picking up a load
Traveling with a load
Placing a load
Parking a forklift
Working in a truck, trailer or railcar
Charging and refueling
Maintenance and modification
Specialized units and attachments
Hazardous locations and forklift types
Lifting employees

What is “workshop-style” training?

IT’S A FACT: Interaction makes learning stick. Our workshop-style training approach features critical activity-based, how-to training for operators. In addition to a DVD video and the other training exercises, this program features extra tools you can use to show operators proper procedures... and then have them demonstrate what they’ve learned. It's a perfect opportunity to identify shortcomings and address problem areas in a safe, controlled environment.
