EHAP addresses these concerns by enhancing your work in three critical areas:

1. OSHA Safety Requirements: EHAP aids in compliance with the OSHA 1910.269 safety standard, necessitating employer-certified training for employees working within 10 feet of energized conductors. Employers must certify that their workers are trained to understand the unique hazards associated with such work. The program complements on-the-job training and verification, ensuring employees possess the skills required for safe line-clearance tasks. EHAP, when combined with documented on-the-job skills training and verification, fulfills OSHA 1910.269 requirements.
2. ANSI Safety Requirements: The ANSI Z133.1 safety standard mandates that all employees involved in arboricultural operations be trained to recognize electrical hazards. EHAP training aligns with the ANSI Z133.1 requirement, encompassing all content related to electrical hazards in the Z133 standard. (Note: The ANSI Z133 Safety Standard is available for purchase separately.)
3. Storm Cleanup: EHAP is often a prerequisite for storm-related clean-ups mandated by the US Army Corps of Engineers. Recognizing the program’s importance dates back to Hurricane Katrina, highlighting its efficacy and relevance in preparing arborists for safe and effective storm cleanup operations.
