State of Montana New Employee Orientation

Federal and State statutes require all new employees receive new employee safety orientation training. In addition, specific tasks may require employees to receive task specific safety training prior to starting work.

Your agency will ensure you receive the correct additional training to help keep you safe while at work.

This training is intended to provide general safety orientation training for state employees.

Accompanied with this video is a download handbook.

The new employee safety orientation explains how to assess the risks from a hazard and what to do. Included in this presentation are the minimum requirements for lifting and emergency actions along with guidance for supervisors and reporting an injury.
