While we work to implement the new HAZCOM standard, changes to 1910.106 and 1910.119 may have went unoticed
Changes to 1910.106 These changes are not very subtle and in fact I have to take my hat off to OSHA and the NPRM process for working this out.  As many of us know, the new HAZCOM standard was a significant change; so significant that it impacted several other OSHA standards in both general industry and construction.  But 1910.106 (1926.152) were seriously revised with an entire revamping...

2012 Video of the Week # 33 (WARNING!! Forklift Fatality caught on CCTV)
PLEASE BE ADVISED – this video is REAL and may be upsetting to some.  It is not shown to disrespect anyone, but a painful reminder of what happens around forklifts!  I want those who view this video to pay close attention that the deceased was a truck driver and he was wearing his high visibility vest; however, when PIT drivers can NOT see where they are going these vest do little to...

2012 Photo of the Week #33 (Respiratory Protection)

How fast does my PRCS Rescue Service have to respond?
This is, without a doubt, the number one question posed regarding 1910.146(k).  The problem is that many think there is no time requirements at all, and on the other end of the spectrum are folks like me who think response readiness is CRITICAL.  OSHA has defined this response timing ( as well as other technical PRCS questions) for us in a formal settlement agreement that I wish to share… Emphasis...
