Health Care and Safety 2012 - OSHA Subpart Z (or IH) Regulations: Everything you Always Wanted to Know About It

This 3-hr virtual seminar on OSHA Subpart Z (or IH) Regulations will discuss many of the individual standards as well as the general model and approach and “template” that OSHA takes with these IH regulations.

Why Should You Attend:

Ever wonder what all of those long industrial hygiene (or IH) regulations are about in OSHA’s Subpart Z (in either 1910 ? General Industry or 1926 ? Construction)? You are not alone! Many OHS professionals have questions about these “Expanded Health” standards! These IH standards can be quite involved and, at times, confusing. This can obviously lead to non-compliance and then on to ? hazards, exposures, illness, citations, and fines ? and no one wants that!

Areas Covered in the Seminar:
- Initial questions, needs, or specific information requests.
- Brief background on how the workshop is structured (the participant “voting” on which IH regulations we cover).
- Helpful considerations to apply the learning today.
- Overview of 1910 General Industry's Subpart Z ? Toxic and Hazardous Substances.
- Overview of 1926 Construction's Subpart Z ? Toxic and Hazardous Substances.

- What matters most to OSHA should matter the most to employers!
- In depth look at several “expanded health standards” as voted for by the workshop participants (as time allows).
- Developing your “action plan”.
- Wrap-up and additional questions.
