Safety isn’t about the hardhat, respirator or vest; it’s about the people who wear them. Signature Safety believes that in order to build a world-class safety culture, your workforce must have the knowledge to recognize hazards so that they can play a major role in keeping themselves, and their co-workers, safe. Signature Safety offers in-person classes on all safety topics, utilizing both traditional instruction and virtual reality “field trips”. The virtual reality allows us to take our classes to places we’ve never been able to go before, from inspections of heavy equipment performing civil work to high-rise construction.

Now Offering Virtual Reality Training

We use virtual reality to enhance many of our classes. Virtual Reality allows us to do things that would have previously been impossible in a classroom setting, such as inspecting a scaffold right down to its rusty bolts, or observing the use of a tower crane up close. Not only does this give a break from the traditional lecture format, it has also been proven to increase knowledge retention among students.

“We have turned to Signature Safety for site safety professionals for approximately ten years, when our EMR was increasing slightly. With that concern, we needed in-field safety support. Not only has Signature provided strong personnel, but the support they provide in the field has helped substantially reduce our EMR. In addition, their management support and responsiveness is unparalleled in such a fast-paced and ever-changing industry.”

FAQs

  • Are classes offered virtually or in person?

    It depends. We can tailor most of our classes to your needs, whether that includes our new and engaging virtual reality training or in-person training at our facility or yours.

    In many cases we can do either, but keep in mind that OSHA does not allow for virtual classes for such courses as the 10 and 30 hour Outreach training.

  • Are your classes OSHA Certified?

    OSHA doesn’t “certify” anything. For the OSHA 10 and 30 Hour courses, students will receive cards issued directly from OSHA. For all other classes, cards will be issued attesting to the fact that the class was conducted in accordance with the applicable OSHA regulations (and/or any other regulations that may apply).

  • Do you offer courses in other languages?

    Yes, many of our courses are also available in Spanish.

  • Is there a minimum number of students required for a training class?

    It depends on the class. In some cases, we can offer one-on-one training. Other classes including the OSHA 10 Hour Construction and OSHA 30 Hour Construction classes require a minimum of three people.

  • Is there a maximum number of students per class?

    Again, this depends. Some classes, such as the OSHA 10 and 30 have a maximum of 40 people, but we need to take into account other factors, such as facility size. Other classes like first aid/CPR could have limits of 10-12 people due to the requirements of the certifying organization.
