Which OSHA course should I take?

The entertainment industry follows both the General Industry and Construction rules and regulations. Which industry courses you take could be determined or required by your employer, state, city, municipality, or local union. If none of those entities requires you to take a specific industry course, take the one that pertains the most to your craft or art. You should always check with your local union first to see what they recommend or require.
