Based on the provided excerpts, here are the training requirements for scaffold users:

Who Must Provide Training A qualified person must train all employees who perform work while on a scaffold — specifically, someone qualified "to recognize the hazards associated with the type of scaffold being used and to understand the procedures to control or minimize those hazards." [OSHA 3150 Scaffold Guide, Sec A, p.8]

Required Training Topics The training must include, as applicable: 1. The nature of any electrical hazards, fall hazards, and falling object hazards in the work area 2. The correct procedures for dealing with electrical hazards and for erecting, maintaining, and disassembling fall protection and falling object protection systems 3. The proper use of the scaffold and proper handling of materials on the scaffold 4. The maximum intended load and load-carrying capacities of the scaffolds used 5. Any other pertinent requirements of the subpart

[OSHA 3150 Scaffold Guide, Sec 5, p.51]

Retraining Requirements Retraining is required when: 1. No employee training has taken place for worksite changes, scaffold changes, or falling object protection changes; or 2. The employer believes the employee lacks the necessary skill, understanding, or proficiency to work safely.

[OSHA 3150 Scaffold Guide, Sec A, p.8]

> Note: The above covers requirements specifically for scaffold users. The excerpts also contain separate, additional training requirements for employees who erect, disassemble, move, operate, repair, maintain, or inspect scaffolds under §1926.454(b), which involve training by a competent person rather than a qualified person.
