MSHA Training

Anyone working on an MSHA Mine Site needs to be trained. Be careful… Some people think that if you are a truck driver you don’t need MSHA training. That may be true if you do not get out of your truck to load yourself on an active mine site. Even the porta potty vendor may need MSHA training if they are working in an area of mining hazards, or onsite for frequent or extended periods. United Safety Solutions is fair and honest, if you do not need the training we will tell you! If we are not sure, we will find out!

Introduction to the work environment (Mine Tour)

New Miners need to complete their training with an Introduction to the work environment. New Miners are not able to work on a mine site until this is completed. The mine tour will be done every 4th Friday of the month in the Rhinelander area. Call the office (715) 337-2722 and ask for Sherri to get on the schedule.

 

Whatever your learning preference or schedule requirements, USS has the training methods to accommodate your needs.

You have 5 options

1. Public Classes: United Safety Solutions picks the date and sets up the entire venue. If that location and date fits your schedule, click that date to sign up and pay for your class.

Cost for a public class is listed on that date. Prices vary due to the charges set by the location.

2. Private Classes: This is a date your company has chosen and will set the venue. These classes are for employees only.

3. Sponsored by Classes: This class is set up by a company that will allow others to join their training. We will provide a number for you to call and see if they have available seats and what their prices are. You will register with that company.

4. USS MSHA/NTC Classes: You will need to call an NTC campus to find out when those sessions are held.

5. Live Zoom Classes: You set the venue and bring in all of your employees and we interact with each other through zoom, connected to a big screen.

Or we can give each of your employees a link through email to join our live session right from their location. They need a laptop with a camera and good internet connection for this.

Give the office a call if you are interested in this type of training.

We also offer the live zoom classes to Spanish speaking Part 46 New Miners and Refreshers. This class is taught live with our Instructor Orlando!

The Open Window is available to our MSHA Part 48(b) people who are required to communicate with the approved Part 48(b) Instructor during training times.

You can join the open window Monday – Thursday 7:30 am to 5:00 pm. I am super excited about this option because it will allow MSHA Part 48(b) people to receive their required training at times convenient to them.

Here is how it works:

Click above and you will be able to choose Part 48(b) New Miner or Part 48(b) Refresher. Follow the directions and you will be connected to your instructor and training materials to begin your self paced training.  Once you have completed your training, your 5000-23 certificate will be available right away. Print the certificate, sign it and you are all set. 

You may also have a Part 46 or Part 48 Live Zoom meeting for your company. You set the venue and bring in all of your employees and we interact with each other through zoom, connected to a big screen.
