Health and SafetyCompliance 2011 - Hazard Recognition Techniques That Deliver Measurable Results

This webinar on Hazard Recognition Techniques will help increase your awareness of workplace hazards, provide meaningful and useful hazard identification procedures, methods to perform 'hazard' surveys that reduce risks that can lead to worker exposures to hazardous materials or injuries.

Accidents occur in the workplace for a variety of reasons, foremost among them is a failure to recognize hazards in the workplace that can cause accidents. An awareness of hazards and the ability to identify and either eliminate them or protect workers from exposure to these hazards is a key element in the reduction of workplace hazard injuries.

Such analyses are required by law when potential workplace hazards , either in the form of chemical risks, risks from equipment or working conditions, exist. Failure to recognize and catalogue workplace hazards can lead to increased inspections from regulatory agencies, as well as the potential for fines from agencies like OSHA.
