Brewers Association Draught Line Safety for Adjacent Workers Course
The serving of draft beer is something that many bars and restaurants could place a higher focus on. There have been numerous times that when we’ve sat down to enjoy a beer, the aroma and flavor is not what we had expected. This is especially concerning when it’s a beer from a reputably brewery that we have full confidence in.
To assist in the importance of draft line maintenance, the Brewers Association is offering Draught Line Safety for Adjacent Workers Course via a free online training. This free short course is intended to enable persons who work adjacent to draught line cleaning operations to develop and practice awareness of safe work practices in compliance with Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulations. In addition to receiving a certificate of completion, students will learn how to control safety and health risks surrounding draught beer handling, create a safer and healthier workplace, and foster a workplace culture that accomplishes all the above.
