Custom Safety Plans Benefits All Concerned at North Florida Workplaces

Online OSHA Safety Training – Jacksonville – Florida

The rain kept coming down and it looked as if most of the lower-lying areas of the First coast, would have to evacuate. For a good part of the night of the 26^th of June, 2012, the residents and the business owners of Jacksonville, Florida were up and watching the weather reports about Tropical Storm Debby.

Debby soaked North Florida before finally filtering off into the Atlantic Ocean. When the rain stopped and people were able to take a toll of their property and overflowed retention ponds, that now looked like small lakes, the damage was self-evident.

One firm, with deep ties to the Jacksonville community, is Online OSHA Safety Training. Taylor Tremor is a seasonal resident with a home office in Mandarin. His primary duties are to monitor and report on the construction and general industry sectors in the North Florida area.

When a natural disaster strikes, such as the rain-soaking storm Debby, it is imperative that Online OSHA has a contact in the area, and this is why Taylor has been living and working in Jacksonville for over 21 years.

Once the storm passed and it was once again safe to transverse the roads of Duval County, Mr. Tremor, along with his able-bodied and storm-savvy staff of safety training associates, set out to deliver the message that the drenched area needed, Custom Safety Plans saves lives and property.

Onsite OSHA Safety Training Made Jacksonville, Florida a Safer Place to Work

Jacksonville – Florida – Chamber of Commercial Workings

A decade ago, when you drove through the largest city in Florida (Jax), one glaring eye-sore made you wish that you were already fishing in Miami and far away from the Bold New City of the South. It was the perpetual road construction that seemed to go on forever and was unsafe for the workers that toiled on these sites in Jacksonville.

We caught up with a lifelong resident of Jacksonville, Tim Spencer, recently and this man was all too happy to share with us here at Online OSHA Safety Training, his own trials and tribulations, as a construction worker on I-10.

“The work day started at 5:00 am and continued until well into the dark of night.” Tim said over a bagel and a cup of Joe at Ronnie’s Breakfast Nook on the south side of town. Mr. Spencer was employed with Straightway Road Construction from 2002 to 2008 and saw his fair share of accidents and even a sole fatality in his 8-years of working on the construction projects that dotted Jacksonville during his tenure.

“The truck was going so fast that all we could do was to dive out of the way and one worker was a tad bit slow and that slowness costs him his life.” The slow worker was Billy Tiller and after his family won a wrongful death lawsuit against the driver of that semi-trailer, the OOST onsite training team was called in to teach a class on construction ‘pass-through’ safety.

The course allowed the construction workers toiling on the construction sites on I-10 to feel safer and accidents dropped to zero in 2005. “We miss Billy something awful but his death was not for naught as the rest of us were able to work and provide for our families as the safety issues were taken into affect by the examiners and teachers from OOST.”

Repetitive Injuries Study 2012 at Columbus Online OSHA Safety Training Office

At the home office of Online OSHA Safety Training, there is a big interest in the postures of all the team associates. Bob Malhotra, the President of the company, was doing his routine morning appreciation walk through the halls of the office here in Columbus, Ohio, and he could not help but notice the postures of most of the trainers. “I used to sneak up behind them and tap them on the shoulder and whisper “sit up” but that was getting to be too parental and not very effective.” Bob went on to say that in his 20 years of educating workers and volunteers on the importance of just sitting up as straight as possible while at work or driving, anything relating to ergonomics and safety, he has not seen such a willful disregard for the spine as of today.

Ergonomic Meetings

What Bob did was to hold a safety meeting each Monday morning and detailed the importance of a good posture. The benefits are compelling and not only are related to office work but also almost every construction and general industry sector in the United States. the OSHA 30-Hour Safety Training course is great for learning how to be upright and safe while working in the office. 

Ergonomic Studies Should Be Done on All Work Stations to Reduce Repetitive Injuries

Online OSHA Safety Training – Revisiting the BP Gulf Oil Spill in 2012

BP Gulf Oil Spill Visit – Tremor Taylor


After returning from a visit to the now pristine and clean shores of Biloxi, Mississippi, Taylor Tremor knew what it was that this Online OSHA Safety Training VP had to do. A brief write-up on what Taylor said “Was one of the most beautiful Gulf of Mexico locations I have ever seen!”

Here is that current article by Taylor Tremor.

It was April 20, 2010 when the Gulf of Mexico was slicked-up by the BP Gulf Oil Spill. The images of oily seabirds and mucked up beaches filled our eyes and chilled our hearts. We did not realize just how much oil a drilling platform, that had been damaged by a fiery explosion, could weep into the waters of this natural wonder.

Now that I have seen with my own eyes, the dynamic, financially-invigorating British Petroleum turnaround in the Gulf, I now understand what it took to get to this point. BP did a great job in cleaning up the oil spill that they created on that fateful day in April.

I will be revisiting this very location in August of this year and will send back pictures of what the Gulf looks like at that time.

At OOST, we never let-up on being watchdogs for our fragile environment.

Sincerely,

Taylor Tremor
