Start Planning Your Propane Safety Training for 2020
The start of a new year, and a new decade, means that it’s time to evaluate your company’s safety program and start preparing for future training needs.

The good news is that P3 Propane Safety is available to evaluate your employee training needs, set up required and recommended training sessions when it’s most convenient for you, and travel to your business location to complete training on site.
What Are My Immediate Training Needs?
Safety training in the propane industry can be complex. The first step is narrowing down which requirements your team must meet in order to avoid fines and maintain proper compliance.
- Annual Required Training
Check your records to see which propane training needs to be completed each year, like OSHA Training, Fire Extinguisher Training, DOT Security Plan Training, and other training for local and state requirements. - 3-Year Refresher Training
Some propane safety entities, like the Department of Transportation (DOT), have training that must be routinely conducted. For example, the DOT requires that all employees receive refresher hazmat training every three years. - Performance-Based Training
Make sure your employees are prepared for future responsibilities, like propane container evacuations. During performance-based training, your propane safety expert will evaluate employees on site and determine what training is necessary to take care of their needs.
How Should I Prioritize Propane Training for the Rest of the Year?
Once you identify your team’s immediate training needs, it is important to assess how future training can help your employees build their skills and continue to develop their performance.
