OSHA Written HAzard Commnication Written ProgramJohn Newquist
This document discusses hazard communication programs and standards. It begins with an overview of the history of hazard communication laws from Upton Sinclair's 1906 book "The Jungle" to the establishment of the OSHA 1910.1200 hazard communication standard in 1985. It then lists the most frequently cited violations in general industry, with the top violation being for not having a written hazard communication program under 1910.1200(e)(1), which has resulted in over 1,500 citations. The document outlines the requirements for a written hazard communication program including maintaining SDS sheets and addressing non-routine tasks. It concludes with the author's contact information.
This document discusses caught-in and between hazards, which are the fourth leading cause of construction worker deaths. It defines caught-in/between hazards as injuries caused by being crushed by or caught between objects, machinery, or equipment. The document then provides examples of common caught-in/between hazards like unguarded machinery, trench collapses, and getting pinned between equipment and structures. It also outlines steps workers and employers can take to protect against these hazards, such as using proper machine guarding, fall protection, and trench shoring.
This document outlines the objectives and key elements of an introductory course on the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). It describes the major provisions of the OSH Act of 1970 that established OSHA, including its functions and positive impact on worker safety. Employer and worker rights and responsibilities are also covered. The document further explains the organization of OSHA standards in the Code of Federal Regulations, and the inspection, citation, and appeals processes.
This document discusses hand safety and proper hand protection. It notes that hands are important but vulnerable, as demonstrated by examples of common hand injuries like cuts, punctures, and crushed fingers. Several case studies describe specific hand injuries that occurred in woodworking facilities. The document emphasizes selecting the right gloves for the job and hazards, maintaining gloves, and following precautions like avoiding pinch points and using tools instead of hands. Proper hand protection, training, and precautions can help prevent disabling hand injuries.
The document provides information on tactical solutions for workplace safety during the coronavirus pandemic. It discusses the global spread of COVID-19 infections and deaths. It describes coronaviruses and explains what COVID-19 is. Symptoms, transmission, treatment, and prevention are compared between COVID-19 and influenza. When returning to work, employers should reduce transmission, maintain healthy operations, and keep the environment clean. The document also discusses potential treatments like hydroxychloroquine and supplies shortages of protective equipment.
This document discusses coronaviruses, COVID-19, and compares COVID-19 to influenza. It states that coronaviruses can cause illness in animals and humans, and that COVID-19 is a new coronavirus that emerged in Wuhan, China in late 2019 and has since spread globally. It outlines similarities between COVID-19 and influenza such as common symptoms, transmission through droplets, treatment by addressing symptoms, and prevention through hand washing and social distancing. It also notes key differences such as COVID-19's longer incubation period and lack of a current vaccine.
This document discusses hand safety and proper hand protection. It notes that hands are important but vulnerable, as demonstrated by the inability to tie shoes with thumbs tucked inside.

Good morning and welcome back to Energy Source, coming to you from New York, where the city swelters in its first heatwave of the season.
Nearly 80 million people were under alerts in the US north-east and midwest yesterday as temperatures in some municipalities reached record highs in a test to the country’s rickety power grid.
In other news, the Financial Times has a new Big Read this morning on Russia’s grip on nuclear power. Despite sanctions on its economy, the Kremlin continues to be an unrivalled exporter of nuclear power plants, building more than half of all reactors under construction globally. Read how Moscow is using these projects to wield global influence.
Today’s Energy Source dives into the latest Statistical Review of World Energy, the industry’s annual stocktake of global energy consumption. The report was published for more than 70 years by BP before it was passed over to the Energy Institute last year. The oil major remains a contributor.

New report offers sobering view of the energy transition
Every year the Statistical Review of World Energy offers a behemoth of data on the state of the global energy market. This year’s findings highlight the world’s insatiable demand for energy and the need to speed up the pace of decarbonisation.
Here are our four main takeaways from this year’s report:
Fossil fuel consumption — and emissions — are at record highs
Countries burnt record amounts of oil and coal last year, sending global fossil fuel consumption and emissions to all-time highs, the Energy Institute reported. Oil demand grew 2.6 per cent, surpassing 100mn barrels per day for the first time.
Meanwhile, the share of fossil fuels in the energy mix declined slightly by half a percentage point, but still made up more than 81 per cent of consumption.
Causes Supporting Charity for Elderly PeopleSERUDS INDIA
Around 52% of the elder populations in India are living in poverty and poor health problems. In this technological world, they became very backward without having any knowledge about technology. So they’re dependent on working hard for their daily earnings, they’re physically very weak. Thus charity organizations are made to help and raise them and also to give them hope to live.

Michael Wood
• The only thing Heinrich's Pyramid
gets right (I think) is that
dangerous work practices and
deficient safety controls rarely
cause a fatality every time, so the
death that occurs is often the
result of an activity that has been
repeated, over and over.
• I think we often face the same
problem with "low
probability/high severity" safety
risks -- like explosions,
lockout/tagout issues, etc. The
focus on frequency of past claims
blinds them to what should be
obvious risks
• But the notion that that same
activity will generate a bunch of
minor injuries and a smaller
group of more serious injuries is
simply wrong

A brand for a company is like a reputation for a person. You earn reputation by
trying to do hard things well.
If you do build a great experience, customers tell each other about that. Word of

Why Should Employees be
Involved?
• Workers know potential hazards and have a
vested interest in effective protection.
• Group input provides a wider range of
experience.
• Employees are more likely to support and use
programs in which they have input.

• Institute on-the-job training.
• Teach and institute leadership to
improve all job functions.
• Drive out fear; create trust.
• Strive to reduce
intradepartmental conflicts.
• Remove barriers that rob people
of pride of workmanship
• Educate with self-improvement
programs.
• Include everyone in the company
to accomplish the
transformation.
• Eliminate exhortations for the
work force; instead, focus on the
system and morale.
• (a) Eliminate work standard
quotas for production. Substitute
leadership methods for
improvement.
(b) Eliminate MBO. Avoid
numerical goals. Alternatively,
learn the capabilities of
processes, and how to improve
them.

Leadership Case 1
When I arrived in 2009, there was a
strong focus on the DART rate and
how it affects entry into the VPP
program.
It has evolved to holding managers
accountable for the safety of their
employees to the level of
termination of managers for poor
performance in compliance with
established procedures.
Further, this site wants to achieve
no injuries and illness because those
are not acceptable to the families or
coworkers. They believe they have
100% safe processes and should
have no injuries as a result.

69. 69
Leadership Case 2
“When I walk around everyone knows I am looking for unsafe
conditions or actions, proper PPE and to make sure that everyone is
productively employed.
“I also check cycle times and ask of the skilled trades what is the
controlling operation if it is slow.”

b. Contact with sharp
burrs and edges of
castings can cause
severe lacerations.
1. Use a device as a clamp to
pick up castings.
2. Wear cut-resistant gloves
that allow a good grip and fit
tightly to minimize the chance
that they will get caught in
grinding wheel.
c. Strains to lower back
from reaching, twisting,
and lifting 15-pound
castings from the floor.
1. Move castings from the
ground and place them closer
to the work zone to minimize
lifting. Ideally, place them at
waist height or on an
adjustable platform or pallet.
2. Train workers not to twist
while lifting and reconfigure
work station to minimize
twisting during lifts.

forklifts, shadow-boarding, updated
emergency action plans, and
improvements to the near-miss
portal.
102. 102
Monthly Inspections
• Monthly, designated personnel perform Housekeeping Area inspections.
• During these inspections area owners inspect for safety hazards.
• Deficiencies which can be fixed immediately are the responsibility of the area
owner.
• Other deficiencies are documented in the Corrective Action Program and/or a
work request is submitted for correction.
• Deficiencies which require immediate resolution are brought to the attention
of the Shift Manager or Work Control Center.

Element 4 –
Safety and Health Training
• Education tells Why
• Training shows How
• Experience improves Skills
109. 109

Five Principles of
Teaching and Learning
• Trainees should understand
purpose of training
• Organize information to
maximize effectiveness
• Immediately practice and
apply new knowledge and
skills
• As trainees practice,
feedback needed
• Effective training
incorporates a variety of
methods
110. 110
McGregor Industries

116. 116
Deming's Points
• Create and communicate to all
employees a statement of the
aims and purposes of the
company.
• Institute on-the-job training.
• Teach and institute leadership to
improve all job functions.
• Drive out fear; create trust.
• Strive to reduce
intradepartmental conflicts.
• Remove barriers that rob people
of pride of workmanship
• Educate with self-improvement
programs.
• Include everyone in the company
to accomplish the
transformation.
• Eliminate exhortations for the
work force; instead, focus on the
system and morale.
• (a) Eliminate work standard
quotas for production. Substitute
leadership methods for
improvement.
(b) Eliminate MBO. Avoid
numerical goals. Alternatively,
learn the capabilities of
processes, and how to improve
them.
117. 117
Safety Committee VPP
• XXX’s Glove Guidelines were
created as a result of a safety
committee meeting.
• They realized the need for a more
versatile glove.
• The gloves XXX’s provided at the
time were uncomfortable. Nor
were those gloves adequate for
multi-purpose use.
• The committee members
researched numerous types and
styles of gloves, and piloted
several gloves researched.
• Outcome: Increased glove usage
dramatically. XXX’s employees
owned the new gloves, as they
were responsible for the change.
• The change in gloves has also had
an immediate impact on
company hand injuries.
117
118. 118
Large Company
• 1600 near misses and hazards
brought up by employees in 6
plants in 2 years
• Employees look out for each other
• Incentives focus on leading
indicators
• This is what you want!
• Employees bringing up safety,
production, quality, property,
environmental issues.
• Use their experiences, eyes and
ears.

OFI = Good Catch
• Any hazard or unsafe
condition is a $20 gas card.
• Recognized at monthly
safety meeting
• 2,000 Good Catches in 4
years
• 1,000 employees
• 2008 TCIR 1.21 to 0.72 to
0.56
• 2.1 million hours = 0.28
incident rate in 2011

Rewards
• If you reward lack
of injury, but risks
exist…..
• Then worker see
taking risks ok as
long as they do not
get hurt.
125. 125
What is an Incident?
• Incident: An unplanned,
undesired event that hinders
completion of a task and may
cause injury, illness, or property
damage or some combination of
all three in varying degrees from
minor to catastrophic.
• Unplanned and undesired do not
mean unable to prevent.

126. 126
What Is An Accident?
Accident: Definition is often similar to
incident, but supports the mindset that it
could not have been prevented

127. 127
Root Cause
• Event Date: 01/27/2009
• On January 27, 2009, Gerald
Holland was walking across an
aircraft hanger to exit the
building for lunch.
• Ice and sleet had been blowing
through gaps in the hanger doors,
creating slippery conditions on
the adjacent floor.
• Gerald slipped and fell, striking
his head on the concrete floor.
He was hospitalized for severe
head trauma and later died.
128. 128
Another Root Cause
• Accident investigations only
identify what happened; the
underlying causes of the accident
are not identified.
• If the root causes of an accident
are not identified, only superficial
solutions can be considered.
128
129. 129
Back to Root Cause
• May 2014
• $87,000 Shoulder strain
• Employee used
inappropriate
procedures

Temporary Employee
• Carlos Centeno Death
• NPR, Mother Jones, Center to
Protect Public Integrity
• 50% of top ten employers
with amputations
• Dr. Michaels – Feb 2013
• Employer indifference to the working
conditions of many contingent workers
is simply unacceptable.
• While some employers may believe they
are not responsible for temporary
workers, OSHA requires that employers
ensure the health and safety of all
workers under their supervision and
control.
• We need to make it clear to supervisors,
staffing and temp agencies, and other
employers that even if workers are
temporary, they are entitled to the
same safety and health rights and
should be treated no differently from
other workers.
Staffing agency does not know the electrical hazards
at the workplace.
Contract language really does not matter to a jury.

consider doing the same
thing.
• Aug 2014
132. 132
Ergonomics
• First ergo in years to poultry
company in AL.
• OSHA issued 11 citations to
the poultry processing plant in
Jack, Ala., including nine
serious, one repeat and one
other-than-serious violation.
• The inspection was initiated
after the agency received a
complaint from the Southern
Poverty Law Center.
• Proposed penalties total
$102,600.
134. 134
New Rule
• As of January 1, 2015, all employers
must report:
• All work-related fatalities within 8
hours.
• All work-related inpatient
hospitalizations, all amputations and
all losses of an eye within 24 hours.
• You can report to OSHA by:
• Calling OSHA’s free and confidential
number at 1-800-321-OSHA (6742)
• Calling your closest OSHA Area Office
during normal business hours –
Aurora 630-896-8700
• Using the new online form that will
soon be available.
“Jordan Barab We will not
be inspecting all reports,
but we will have some
contact with them.”
135. 135
Further
• Only fatalities occurring
within 30 days of the
work-related incident
must be reported to
OSHA.
• Further, for an inpatient
hospitalization,
amputation or loss of an
eye, these incidents must
be reported to OSHA only
if they occur within 24
hours of the work-related
incident.
The Midwest Region in Chicago is
estimating 3000 amputations and
10,000 hospitalization called in in
2015.
137. 137
What Information is Needed?
• Employers reporting a fatality, inpatient
hospitalization, amputation or loss of
an eye to OSHA must report the
following information:
• Establishment name
• Location of the work-related incident
• Time of the work-related incident
• Type of reportable event (i.e., fatality,
inpatient hospitalization, amputation or
loss of an eye)
• Number of employees who suffered the

• Conduct Internal Site
Inspections
• Understand that
internal reviews are
discoverable by OSHA and
others
• Be prepared to promptly
fix and/or address what
you find
• Documenting Corrective
Action/Close Out is as
important as
finding action items
141. 141
Citation Avoidance
• Use Outside Set of Eyes
for a fresh perspective
• Know and use your own
OSHA history
– Plant specific citations
– Company wide citations
• Large employers beware.
OSHA perceives a
corporate disconnect
142. 142
External Audits
OSHA can subpoena these
audits.
Two Large Penalty cases
used the audit findings
against the company.
– Outside audits are not
privileged unless
directed by a counsel
– Company and Outside
Counsel can retain
consultants to create
arguments the audit
may not be discovered
