A. Introduction

The objective of this NAVOSH Training Guide For Shore Activities is to provide an effective and efficient means of meeting shore NAVOSH training requirements. OPNAVINST 5100.23F, NAVOSH Program Manual, Chapter 6, Training, defines required OSH and HazCom training necessary for employees to perform their work in an occupationally safe and healthful manner. This guide consolidates OSH subject matter into generic PowerPoint presentations.

Instructors using these PowerPoint presentations should be trained occupational safety and health specialists, collateral duty Safety Officers, Safety Petty Officers, or Medical Department Representatives. Instructors do not have to be a technical subject-matter expert, but they must review the applicable references and familiarize themselves with the material.

These PowerPoint presentations cover general safety and health topics, but do not include the specific safety lectures required before special evolutions or operations such as weapons handling and refueling. These lectures must be tailored to your command's specific mission requirements. In some instances, there will be more detail than required in the PowerPoint presentations, depending on your audience. Also, specific information on the program at your activity must be added.

This guide was developed by and is maintained by the Naval Occupational Safety and Health, and Environmental Training Center (NAVOSHENVTRACEN), 9080 Breezy Point Crescent, Norfolk, VA 23511-3998 with input from the Shore NAVOSH Training Working Group of the NAVOSH Training Group. Comments regarding this guide should be directed in writing to NAVOSHENVTRACEN, Code 201.

B. NAVOSH Training Requirements

Reference: OPNAVINST 5100.23F, Chapter 6, Training

An initial orientation to the Navy's OSH program must be presented to all new employees, with an annual refresher for top management and supervisory personnel. Initial job specific training must be provided to personnel assigned to an applicable job or area, and annually thereafter. OPNAVINST 5100.23F provides details on training recordkeeping requirements. Other training requirements are addressed throughout OPNAVINST 5100.23F, according to the program area.

C. Training Aid

NAVOSH Training Aids/Videos are available on a permanent loan basis from the Defense Automated Visual Information System/Defense Instructional Technology Information System (DAVIS/DITIS). This site contains the searchable listings and descriptions of thousands of audiovisual (AV) productions used by the Department of Defense (DoD). AV productions include videotapes, films, and multimedia programs used to support operational, training, and internal information missions. URL address is: http://dodimagery.afis.osd.mil/dodimagery/davis/.

Effective 1 July 2000, all ordering of Department of the Navy training videotapes will be done through the Defense Automated Visual Information System/Defense Instructional Technology Information System (DAVIS/DITIS) website. This site contains the searchable listings and descriptions of thousands of audiovisual productions/videotapes and interactive multimedia instruction (IMI) products used by DoD. You can reach the DAVIS/DITIS site through: http://dodimagery.afis.osd.mil/dodimagery/davis/.

D. Presentations

These PowerPoint presentations are provided as general guidance. You may adapt, shorten, lengthen, or make them more specific depending on your command or activity's needs. The presentations are generic outlines of topics which pertain to most shore activities with civilian and/or military personnel.

The PowerPoint presentations were not developed targeting a specific audience. The instructor must determine the audience (top management, supervisor, non-supervisor/worker) and adapt or customize the presentation accordingly. The PowerPoint presentations may be cut down, expanded, or reorganized as necessary. In general, just reading the information contained on each presentation will take approximately 40-50 minutes.

Instructors MUST consult the references before presenting the material so they are familiar with the background information provided by the presentation. For the most part, these PowerPoint presentations use OPNAVINST 5100.23F as the basic reference. Local instruction on the topic should be added to your presentations.

Where applicable, the use of a videotape can amplify the information being presented or provide additional training. Videotapes should not be used as "stand alone" training. NAVOSHENVTRACEN is not authorized to maintain a film loan library, so contact the Defense Automated Visual Information System/Defense Instructional Technology Information System (DAVIS/DITIS). This site contains the searchable listings and descriptions of thousands of audiovisual (AV) productions used by the Department of Defense (DoD). AV productions include videotapes, films, and multimedia programs used to support operational, training, and internal information missions. URL address is: http://dodimagery.afis.osd.mil/dodimagery/davis/.

Always maintain rosters of personnel who have received training on NAVOSH topics. OPNAVINST 5100.23F, Chapter 6, provides training recordkeeping requirements. Although recordkeeping in and of itself does not guarantee a good OSH program, it is one method of documentation required by inspections, Occupational Safety and Health Management Evaluations, mishap investigations, et cetera.

NOTE: NAVOSH topics are in a PowerPoint format. You can either view the presentation on the web browser or download them to your hard drive. Once on your hard drive, you can modify the presentation to your needs, then view it in PowerPoint 97.

When "viewing" a presentation on the web browser, you must "left mouse click" on the topic you want to view. The larger the file, the longer it'll take to load. Please allow several minutes for the file to completely load.

If you want to "download" the file to your hard drive, "right mouse click" on the topic you want. Then save the file to your hard drive by selecting "Save Target As". Then select the directory in which you want to save the presentation. Once the file has been saved to the hard drive, open PowerPoint 97 and view the presentation.
