Is OSHA-required training enough?

Yes and no, it depends what you are trying to achieve.

Yes, this training will help you comply with the minimum regulatory requirements.

No, if you are trying to reduce costs or build an injury-free culture.

Successful safety programs depend on building and applying safety leadership skills at all levels of the organization. It requires changing how people think, feel, and act about safety.

In these companies, leaders demonstrate their personal commitment, set goals for improvement, engage every level of the organization, observe behaviors, and hold people accountable.

None of this is required by OSHA regulations. Yet, the powerful advantage of safety leadership skills is that they drive injury and cost reductions. Compliance training, while necessary, just isn’t enough.
