02 Workplace Violence Prevention Plan

What you get:

  • A written plan for your operation, with the responsible persons named
  • A workplace hazard assessment checklist completed for your operation
  • A Violent Incident Log template, ready to use
  • An employee training outline covering what the law requires training to cover
  • One review call to walk through the finished plan, delivered as a print-ready file

06 First Aid & CPR Training

Hands-on First Aid and CPR classes taught by Amanda Autsen, a certified First Aid/CPR instructor. When someone goes down on a jobsite, the minutes before help arrives are the ones that count. This class teaches your crew what to do in them. Where no infirmary, clinic, or hospital is in near proximity to the worksite, Cal/OSHA (§3400) requires someone adequately trained in first aid (training equal to the American Red Cross or MSHA standard). Our First Aid/CPR classes are taught by Amanda Autsen, certified through HSI (Health & Safety Institute), with CPR included.

  • First Aid and CPR certification courses for crew members and foremen
  • Taught at your shop or jobsite, scheduled around your work
  • Attendance and certification records kept for your files

07 MSHA Part 46 Training Plan Development

Every Part 46 operation needs a written training plan. We build yours for your operation (new miner, newly hired experienced miner, new task, annual refresher, and site-specific hazard awareness training), with the person responsible for training named, the competent persons and organizations listed with the subjects each can teach, teaching methods and materials, subject times, and how you’ll judge whether the training worked. Built to §46.3(b), so the plan is considered approved when it contains those items. Your A & A online courses get listed in the plan where they fit.

Delivered as a print-ready file within 5 business days of your intake call. Every job is quoted at a flat price before work starts.

The plan is yours to implement and keep current. We write it, you own it.

About A & A Standard Safety

A & A Standard Safety is a Sacramento safety consulting business founded by Aaron and Amanda Autsen. Amanda runs operations and client intake and teaches our First Aid and CPR classes as an HSI-certified instructor. She holds a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology with an emphasis in Physical Education, the study of how the body moves and the science behind safe lifting and injury prevention. Aaron does the safety work.

A & A Standard Safety was founded in 2026 by Aaron and Amanda Autsen. Aaron has worked in safety since 2008, more than 18 years across construction, mining, and oil & gas. His work covers Cal/OSHA and MSHA (30 CFR Part 46) requirements, written safety program development, crew training, and insurance-claims coordination. He currently works as a safety specialist for a Sacramento Valley contractor. A & A is his own company, built for the smaller shops that carry the same written-program requirements as the big ones but have no safety staff to write them. Aaron is an MSHA Approved Instructor (Part 48) (MIIN M40630418), qualified since 2003.

That is the whole idea behind the business: the program has to match the company that will be held to it. A plan written for your actual crews and your actual work gets used. One pulled off a shelf does not.
