For a Safe Nebraska
Great progress in injury prevention has been made over the years in occupational safety and health, yet costs to employers continue to be huge. And the cost is not only in workers' compensation but in lost productivity, medical costs, administrative expenses, and time lost by other employees.
The National Safety Council, Greater Omaha Chapter helps businesses reduce these costs by providing numerous safety and health training programs, consultation, and other resources. Our training and consulting staff provides years of experience and knowledge.
We provide all NSC certificate programs plus we were named by the U.S. Secretary of Labor in 2003 as an OSHA Training Institute with consortium members Saint Louis University and Kirkwood Community College to provide OSHA authorized training.
Our Programs support both your workplace safety needs plus provide a way to advance your safety career.
