About this data
Which OSHA standards require employee training, what the training must cover, how often it must be repeated, and who must receive it. Each record is one training requirement tied to a specific CFR section. Training frequencies vary: some are annual (respiratory protection 1910.134, bloodborne pathogens 1910.1030), some are event-driven (lockout/tagout 1910.147 — retrain when procedures change), some are initial-only with situational retraining (PPE 1910.132). Answers 'what OSHA training does my construction crew need', 'how often is respiratory protection training required', and 'does OSHA require annual forklift certification'.

Where this came from
Every record above links the page it was taken from and quotes the sentence that states it. These are the 1 source this dataset was assembled from.
- hsi.comhttps://hsi.com/blog/oshas-required-training-frequencies
Machine-readable
- data.jsonThe whole dataset — every record with its source URL and source quote.
- Open Knowledge Format bundleOne JSON object per line — every record's frontmatter and quoted span exactly as it is held here, in one fetch.
- data.csvThe same records as one flat table, for a spreadsheet or a dataframe. The last four columns are the source URL, the quoted sentence it was read from, the date we last checked it, and which columns are our reading rather than the page's words.
- How this is made and checkedWhat "verified against source" does and does not mean.
From your own code
Same records, same quotes, without scraping the page: refsource is on PyPI and npm. Each value comes back carrying the URL it was read from and the sentence on that page that states it — .source and .quote sit on the value itself rather than in a side channel, so the checking step is available instead of skipped.
