Practice Details
State Agency: Minnesota
Practice Provision: Flagger certification and training
Description:
Minnesota requires by specification flagger trainer qualification.
All flaggers must be trained by a Mn/DOT Qualified Flagger Trainer. The program keeps a database of trainers only. The course is offered each winter by Mn/DOT and the Minnesota Asphalt Pavement Association. All flaggers on Mn/DOT projects must have a checklist signed by a Qualified Flagger Trainer. Most of the trainers are contractor's employees. Mn/DOT inspectors can easily check the Flagger Trainer's Qualification Number.
