Accident Investigation #185430

Topics include hazard recognition and classification; ergonomic hazards; accident investigation; performing safety audits; personal responsibility for safe work practices; and developing a positive attitude toward safety, which results in a readiness to respond effectively when a dangerous situation arises. A Safety Audit checklist will be provided to participants.

The new Electronic Filing rule will be covered in this course as well as the revised standard for Occupational Injury & Illness documentation, Safety Data Sheets, training documentation, and OSHA posters and other required postings.
