Comprehensive NFPA 70E Electrical Safety Training

You may know about general OTJ safety. But what do you know about electrical safety? Specifically, what do you know about NFPA® 70E®: the national consensus standard for electrical safety since the 1970s – and the authority OSHA® relies on to determine what workplace electrical safety looks like?

With D.L. Steiner’s “The Electrically Safe Workplace” training course, you’ll learn the key concepts of the essential NFPA 70E safety standard so you can answer “yes” to these and other workplace electrical safety questions:

  • Can I recognize the electrical dangers present in my workplace?
  • Do I know how to stay electrically safe on the job?
  • Is my organization compliant with OSHA’s electrically safe workplace mandate (29 CFR §1910.333)
  • Do I know enough about NFPA 70E to assist my clients with OSHA electrical safety compliance?


This practical four-hour course will teach you the essentials of the NFPA 70E electrical safety standard. You’ll learn – 

  • Shock and arc flash risk assessment – A discussion on how to recognize shock and arc flash hazards and avoid their deadly results.
  • The basics of workplace electrical safety – An introduction to workplace electrical safety, based on documents by the NFPA, IEEE, and OSHA.
  • Safety-related work practices – A survey of electrical safety terms, electrically safe work practices, the electrically safe work condition (ESWC), and managing projects that include electrical hazards.
  • Safety-focused task assessments – An analysis of the task assessment checklist and the safety information printed on electrical equipment safety labels.

D.L. Steiner also offers a more in-depth eight-hour NFPA 70E course for those who want to go deeper into the subjects covered during the four-hour course. Contact D.L. Steiner (419-222-6048 ext. 214) for details.


Want on-site NFPA 70E training for your qualified electrical personnel? How about virtual training delivered via a collaboration app such as Microsoft Teams? What if you have only one or two people to train?

Regardless of your training situation, D.L. Steiner has a delivery option that will ensure your qualified personnel receive the NFPA 70E training they need, quickly and conveniently.

  • If you prefer face-to-face instruction, D.L. Steiner will be happy to bring “The Electrically Safe Workplace” course on site at your location.
  • If the travel time to bring everyone together will cause too much time away from the job, D.L. Steiner can deliver a live presentation of the course remotely so your personnel can receive NFPA 70E training without leaving their office or workspace.
  • If only a few people need NFPA 70E training, you can bring them up-to-speed via D.L. Steiner’s open-enrollment NFPA 70E training webinar that we conduct periodically. Contact D.L. Steiner (419-222-6048 ext. 214) for webinar availability.

Those who successfully complete any of these NFPA 70E training options will receive a certificate of training for their personnel file.
