Here is the presentation that Jim Lay, P.E., from OSHA’s Office of Chemical Process Safety & Enforcement Initiatives did last week @ ASSE’s Annual Conference. He did this presentation the same day OSHA rolled out their new enforcement policies on chemical mixtures and RAGAGEP enforcement. The presentation covers RAGAGEP Background, Early recognition of RAGAGEP, RAGAGEP in OSHA’s PSM standard, and New RAGAGEP Enforcement Guidance. PSM expects employers to: 1) determine and document the codes, standards, and practices they will follow, and then, 2) Implement and follow those codes, standards, and practices.
