OSHA Practice Test (10-Hour & 30-Hour Topics)

The OSHA Practice Test (10-Hour & 30-Hour Topics) is a free 15-minute skill test from Science of Apps. It tests OSHA safety topics covered in the 10-hour and 30-hour Outreach courses — workers' rights, employer duties and recordkeeping, the construction Focus Four hazards, and general industry standards such as hazard communication, lockout/tagout, PPE and exit routes. Score 70% or more on its 15 questions to earn a verifiable OSHA Standards Knowledge certificate (SOA-OSHA). Every question is based on published standards and research — including General industry standards (OSHA), Construction industry standards (OSHA), Outreach Training Program (10- and 30-hour) (OSHA) — and each answer is explained with its source.

Read the three skill areas on this page, then take the 15-minute test online — no fee, course or sign-up. You see every answer explained when you finish. Score 70% or more and you get a OSHA Standards Knowledge certificate straight away, on screen, as a PDF and by email, with a credential ID anyone can verify.

The questions are original scenarios written by Science of Apps, and each one is based on a public source you can read: General industry standards (OSHA); Construction industry standards (OSHA); Outreach Training Program (10- and 30-hour) (OSHA); Fall protection (OSHA); Hazard communication (OSHA); Control of hazardous energy (lockout/tagout) (OSHA). The source is shown under each question and linked in the answer review. Science of Apps doesn't copy questions from other tests.

Three skill areas with five questions each, drawn from a bank of 10 per area so a retake brings new questions: Worker Rights and Employer Responsibilities (OSHA Act and rights, Recordkeeping and reporting and Inspections and whistleblower protection); Construction Focus Four Hazards (Falls, Struck-by and caught-in or between and Electrocution); General Industry Standards (Hazard communication, Lockout/tagout and machine guarding and PPE, walking-working surfaces and exit routes). Every question is an original scenario based on a published standard, official documentation or research, named under the question.
