O & M training is required under the recently revised OSHA Asbestos Construction Industry Standard for both workers and Competent Persons engaged in the Class III and Class IV work categories.
OSHA require that all employers provide sixteen hours of operations and maintenance (O & M) training to any employee who is “likely to disturb” asbestos-containing material during repair or maintenance activities. (Under the new regulations, such work is now considered Class III abatement.)
