Presents this

STUDY MANUAL
AND
TRAINING CLASS
It is anticipated that, after attending this class, students with sufficient on-the-job experience, and
additional private study time (40-60 hours), should be able to pass the State Certification
Examination.

Important words of Wally Zavattero, the Cal/OSHA Inspector responsible for the investigation of
the Sylmar Tunnel Disaster:

"A man has a right to go to work in the morning and expect to come home at night."

Wally felt he had failed.

It really wasn't his fault, because greed and bad judgment had overruled safety.

Yet, he never got over the fact that he COULD have prevented it.

Let us all exercise our responsibilities with great integrity. It mustnot happen again ...
