Safety Awareness: Securing Loads

This CLS: Safety Awareness—Securing Loads course trains workers to use the OODA Loop to protect themselves, their coworkers, and the public against potential hazards when transporting materials and equipment to and from construction job sites. As they become more familiar with the four steps of the OODA Loop, workers will learn to Observe the work area for signs of load securement hazards, Orient to hazards and ask themselves how they can mitigate them, Decide on the safest course of action, and Act to eliminate any risk. Topics include vehicle inspections, loose materials and debris, basic load securement requirements, shifting loads, and unloading materials.

At the end of the course, workers will put their learning to the test by entering our OODA Loop simulator, where they will go through each step of the OODA Loop to find and mitigate hazards in a 3D construction environment.
