AUGUSTA, GA - Grace Hill, Inc., the leading provider of online education and learning management solutions for the multifamily housing industry, has introduced a new online training courseware title, “Asbestos Awareness”, emphasizing the importance of safety training for multifamily housing professionals.
“Even though new use of asbestos was banned in 1989, more than 1.3 million workers still face significant asbestos exposure risk on the job and the multifamily housing industry is no exception,” said Kara Rice, Chief Information Officer for Grace Hill, Inc. “We recognize that associate safety is of paramount importance to our clients, and are pleased to introduce this new course which meets the requirements outlined by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) for asbestos safety training.”
