Special Discounts for OSHA Training
The South Carolina Chamber of Commerce is offering one last 10 and 30-hour OSHA training course June 2-4 in Columbia. For this week only, participants who sign up for 10 or 30-hour OSHA will receive special discounts up to 25 percent off the original registration fees. Please e-mail Andi Gougarty immediately if you are interested. Remember that workplace safety and health is vital to all businesses and is one area that should not be trimmed from the budget. This is a cost-effective alternative to paying OSHA’s hefty fines. For more information, contact Andi Gougarty.
