Wildlife Safety for the Oil and Gas Industry (OLT)	Oil and gas field work often takes place in remote locations, and there is a good chance that workers may come into contact with wildlife on the job. Wild animals can attack people, transmit diseases and damage property, so it is important for workers to know what to do when they encounter wild animals in the field. This course is designed to teach oil and gas workers how to identify various types of dangerous and nuisance animals common to North America, the hazards they present, and the standard precautions to take if these animals are encountered. This course is intended for all employees who may encounter wild animals in the course of their duties. This course is available in both English and Spanish.
Winter Safety for Oil and Gas Personnel (OLT)	Jobs in the oil and gas industry often require driving and working outdoors. In some cases, this means working or driving in extreme temperatures or conditions. Workers who successfully complete this course will be able to identify the factors that contribute to heat loss, the adverse effects of cold stress and how to treat them, preventative measures to avoid cold stress, the winter-related hazardous road conditions and safe driving practices, and how to prepare for hazardous driving conditions. This course is intended for oil and gas workers who are required to work or drive in hazardous winter-weather conditions.
Work Zone and Flagger Safety (OLT)	Despite the many precautions taken by companies and workers, road work zones are still inherently hazardous. Being prepared for what you might experience on a work site is an important part of staying safe. When learners have completed this course, they should be able to recognize work zone hazards and safe flagging operations. Learners should also be able to recognize work zone protections and pedestrian safety measures. OLT
Working Alone Safely (OLT)	Many employees work by themselves for at least part of their shifts, including delivery drivers, janitorial and housekeeping workers, home health workers, and many night shift employees. Working alone comes with its own safety and security hazards, and those hazards vary widely from job to job. It’s important for lone workers to know all of their responsibilities and what to do during an emergency so they can safely perform their job duties without supervision. Learners who successfully complete this course should be able to recognize who lone workers are and the hazards they may face. Learners should also be able to identify requirements and best practices for working alone.
