The Oregon Fatality Assessment and Control Evaluation (OR-FACE) Program, in collaboration with Jeff Wimer (Logging Safety Consultant, OSU Retired), has developed a free, self-guided, online Oregon Yarding and Loading Safety Training.

This training was adapted from the 1993 Oregon OSHA Yarding and Loading Handbook; and the new online training is intended to supplement the essential training offered by employers.  Designed for those working in the logging industry, this online training covers essential topics, such as: types of yarding systems, recommendations for rigging, procedures for rigging crews, and more! 

A Spanish version of the training is currently being developed, and will be available soon for free.

Protect your workforce and improve safety practices with this accessible, convenient training.  Take the training today and make safety a priority!
