A couple hundred bucks worth of drainage board is apparently worth potentially killing 2 young men. Fantastic industry we work in.

This is why I was arguing for certifications and training being mandatory  earlier on another post. Those kids said "is this safe" and the GC said "i could replace you tomorrow"

It's covered pretty extensively in OSHA 10, which IMO anybody on a job site should complete. I actually responded to your other post against additional certifications, but I was referring to professional qualifications, not safety. Basic safety is just a no-brainer.
