The delegados had a great meeting on January 25, 2020. Much of the discussion concerned the upcoming OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) training to which a number of the members are going. Trainers from Make the Road New Jersey attended the meeting to explain the 30-hour training program and assist the participants in completing the contract forms.
People who successfully complete the program will receive official OSHA certificates. These are very valuable to workers because employers are eager to find workers who have them, indicating that they have been well-trained and the employer will not be liable in case of injuries on the job. A number of the participants completed the forms and paid their deposits. CoFiA will also provide some financial assistance.
