Over 30 million American workers are exposed to hazardous chemicals in their workplaces.
OSHA's HazCom standard requires very specific and comprehensive training. Yet, hazard communication violations ranked #2 on OSHA's top 10 list for 2006.
Employees may be interviewed during an audit or OSHA inspection to determine if adequate training has taken place. Be sure your employees are thoroughly trained not only so you can comply with the OSHA standard but also so you know your workers have the knowledge to protect themselves from hazardous materials.
OSHA's HAZCOM standard, also known as the "Right-To-Know" standard, specifically states all workers must be made award of hazardous chemicals whether they work directly with them or not. Employers are required to identify hazardous materials in the workplace, provide warning labels, provide Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs), establish a written HAZCOM program, and notify workers and contractors of workplace hazards.
