Be on the Lookout for OSHA Outreach Training Fraud
|
|
We have been hearing about fraudulent activity by a few unethical OSHA Outreach Trainers, and noticed this news item in New Jersey (
Training Agent Admits Selling False OSHA Training Cards
). This trainer admitted submitting false reports and selling fraudulent training cards to carpenters to improperly establish that they were certified in safety standards and faces a potential maximum penalty of five years in prison and a $250,000 fine.
All it takes is one bad apple to damage the reputation of our outstanding Outreach Trainers, so we urge all of you to notify us or the authorities if you see a trainer engaging in any unethical behavior.
