OSHA and ASME require an employer to provide training to their employees on the safe use of rigging and lifting products and working at height. Mazzella has partnered with ITI (Industrial Training International) and can help you fulfill these requirements by offering classes in many subjects, at various durations, customized to meet your company’s training needs.
Classes can be performed at your location, one of our locations, or remotely in a live virtual format. Mazzella and ITI can also help you with many additional training courses from cranes, rigging, lift planning and rigging engineering, including NCCCO Certification.
