1,3-BUTADIENE GENERAL AWARENESS




1,3-Butadiene ranks 36th in the most produced chemicals in the United States.
Three billion pounds per year are produced in the United States and 12 billion
globally. 1,3-butadiene is produced through the processing of petroleum and is
mainly used in the production of synthetic rubber, but is also found in smaller
amounts in plastics and fuel. Exposure to 1,3-butadiene mainly occurs in the
workplace, including the following industries: synthetic elastomer (rubber and
latex) production, petroleum refining, secondary lead smelting, water treatment,
agricultural fungicides, production of raw material for nylon, and the use of
fossil fuels. Exposure can also occur from automobile exhaust; polluted air and
water near chemical, plastic or rubber facilities; cigarette smoke; and
ingestion of foods that are contaminated from plastic or rubber containers.





18 WHEEL INSPECTION




18-Wheeler Inspection Requirements All 18-wheelers in Texas are required to have
a valid safety inspection sticker. Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT)
Department of Public Safety has adopted the Federal Motor Carrier Safety
Regulations (Parts 390–393 and 395–397), and Federal Hazardous Materials
Regulations (Parts 171-173, 177 and 178).







ACCIDENT INVESTIGATION




Accident Investigation: - Thousands of accidents occur throughout the United
States every day. The failure of people, equipment, supplies, or surroundings to
behave or react as expected causes most of them. Accident investigations
determine how and why these failures occur. By using the information gained
through an investigation, a similar, or perhaps more disastrous, accident may be
prevented. It is important to conduct accident investigations with prevention in
mind. There are currently no specific standards for accident investigation.







ACTIVE SHOOTER-MANAGEMENT




1910.1020(a) -The purpose of this course is to explain to employees and their
designated representatives a right of access to relevant exposure and medical
records; and to provide representatives of the Assistant Secretary a right of
access to these records in order to fulfill responsibilities under the
Occupational Safety and Health Act.







ANHYDROUS AMMONIA






Anhydrous ammonia (NH3) is the foundation for all nitrogen (N) fertilizers.
Although almost 80 percent of the earth's atmosphere is comprised of nitrogen,
it is not in a chemically and biologically unusable form for plants.







ARSENIC AWARENESS






Arsenic is a chemical element with the symbol As and atomic number 33. Arsenic
occurs in many minerals, usually in combination with sulfur and metals, but also
as a pure elemental crystal. Arsenic is a metalloid. It has various allotropes,
but only the gray form, which has a metallic appearance, is important to
industry.







ASBESTOS AWARENESS




What is asbestos? Asbestos is the name given to a group of naturally occurring
minerals that are resistant to heat and corrosion. Asbestos has been used in
products, such as insulation for pipes (steam lines for example), floor tiles,
building materials, and in vehicle brakes and clutches.







BATTERY SAFETY AWARENESS




Most batteries contain sulfuric acid and lead. Because batteries contain
chemicals, chemical reaction by-products, and an electrical current they can
pose a hazard to workers if not handled properly. Workers that operate,
maintain, and recharge batteries should use caution.







BEHAVIOR-BASED SAFETY




Behavior-based safety (BBS) is the "application of science of behavior change to
real world safety problems". or "A process that creates a safety partnership
between management and employees that continually focuses people's attentions
and actions on theirs, and others, daily safety behavior.







BROKEN WORKER-HOW TO DEAL WITH DIFFICULT PEOPLE




Dealing With Difficult People Victims often complain and feel they are ...
everyone must find a way to work together effectively and cooperatively.
Therefore, understanding what motivates difficult people will help you identify
the best. 







CADMIUM




Cadmium is a chemical element with the symbol Cd and atomic number 48. This
soft, silvery-white metal is chemically similar to the two other stable metals
in group 12, zinc and mercury. Like zinc, it demonstrates oxidation state +2 in
most of its compounds, and like mercury, it has a lower melting point than the
transition metals in groups 3 through 11. Cadmium and its congeners in group 12
are often not considered transition metals, in that they do not have partly
filled d or f electron shells in the elemental or common oxidation states.







CARCINOGENS






A carcinogen is any substance, radionuclide, or radiation that promotes
carcinogenesis, the formation of cancer. This may be due to the ability to
damage the genome or to the disruption of cellular metabolic processes. Several
radioactive substances are considered carcinogens, but their carcinogenic
activity is attributed to the radiation, for example gamma rays and alpha
particles, which they emit. Common examples of non-radioactive carcinogens are
inhaled asbestos, certain dioxins, and tobacco smoke. Although the public
generally associates carcinogenicity with synthetic chemicals, it is equally
likely to arise in both natural and synthetic substances.[1] Carcinogens are not
necessarily immediately toxic; thus, their effect can be insidious.







CARGO_SECUREMENT




The new cargo securement rules apply to the same types of vehicles and cargo as
the old rules, covering all cargo-carrying commercial motor vehicles (as defined
in 49 CFR 390.5) operated in interstate commerce. This includes all types of
articles of cargo, except commodities in bulk that lack structure or fixed shape
(e.g., liquids, gases, grain, liquid concrete, sand, gravel, aggregates) and are
transported in a tank, hopper, box or similar device that forms part of the
structure of a commercial motor vehicle.







CAUSTIC SODA SOLUTION




Sodium hydroxide, also known as lye and caustic soda, is an inorganic compound
with the formula NaOH. It is a white solid ionic compound consisting of sodium
cations Na+ and hydroxide anions OH−. Sodium hydroxide is a highly caustic base
and alkali that decomposes proteins at ordinary ambient temperatures and may
cause severe chemical burns.







CHAINSAW SAFETY




Chainsaw safety is every saw operator's job. Always wear proper personal
protective equipment (PPE) when handling or working around chainsaws. Eye
protection - approved goggles or safety glasses. Hearing protection - earplugs
or muffs.







CHEMICAL SAFETY




Chemical safety is the practice of using occupational chemical substances in a
manner that ensures the safety and health of humans and prevents damage to the
environment. It covers all aspects of chemical use, including the manufacture,
transport, use, and disposal of chemicals.







CHLORINE




Chlorine is a chemical element with the symbol Cl and atomic number 17. The
second-lightest of the halogens, it appears between fluorine and bromine in the
periodic table and its properties are mostly intermediate between them. Chlorine
is a yellow-green gas at room temperature.







COLD WEATHER SAFETY






The arctic air, together with brisk winds, can lead to dangerously cold wind
chill values. People exposed to extreme cold are susceptible to frostbite in a
matter of minutes. Areas most prone to frostbite are uncovered skin and the
extremities, such as hands and feet. Hypothermia is another threat during
extreme cold.







COMMUNICATION IN THE WORKPLACE






1. Communicate face-to-face whenever possible 2. Provide clear information 3.
Combine verbal and nonverbal communication 4. Don’t just hear – listen 5. Ask
questions 6. Handle conflicts with diplomacy 7. Refrain from gossip 8. Avoid
being personal with your co-workers 9. Avoid discussing controversial topics 10.
Offer positive feedback







COMPRESSED GAS CYLINDERS SAFETY




Compressed gases and cylinders must be properly stored, transported and used to
prevent injury and accidents. Industrial gas cylinders are color coded to
provide identification "at a glance". Regulators, cylinders and cylinder valves
must be inspected regularly to ensure safe operation. Gases that may react with
each other must be stored separately.







CONFLICT RESOLUTIONS




Conflict resolution is conceptualized as the methods and processes involved in
facilitating the peaceful ending of conflict and retribution. Committed group
members attempt to resolve group conflicts by actively communicating information
about their conflicting motives or ideologies to the rest of group (e.g.,
intentions; reasons for holding certain beliefs) and by engaging in collective
negotiation.[1] Dimensions of resolution typically parallel the dimensions of
conflict in the way the conflict is processed. Cognitive resolution is the way
disputants understand and view the conflict, with beliefs, perspectives,
understandings and attitudes







CROWD MANAGEMENT




What is Crowd Management? “Crowd control” is the prevailing term to define a
major responsibility of facility management in stadiums and arenas. However,
managing and assisting crowds—a practice known as crowd management—is a more
proactive approach and often more effective than trying to control a crowd after
things go wrong.







DISASTER MANAGEMENT




Disaster management is how we deal with the human, material, economic or
environmental impacts of said disaster, it is the process of how we “prepare
for, respond to and learn from the effects of major failures” .  Though often
caused by nature, disasters can have human origins.







DOT SECURITY PART 1




DOT's security plan rules are designed to protect high-consequence shipments of
hazmat from malicious misuse, sabotage, and diversion. Only some facilities are
required to maintain a DOT security plan. Read more about the security plan
requirements here. "Security plan" should not be confused with "security
awareness."







DOT SECURITY PART 2




DOT's security plan rules are designed to protect high-consequence shipments of
hazmat from malicious misuse, sabotage, and diversion. Only some facilities are
required to maintain a DOT security plan. Read more about the security plan
requirements here. "Security plan" should not be confused with "security
awareness."







DRIVING SAFETY




 * Stay Alert - Actively pay attention to your actions and those of the drivers
   around you when you are driving.
 * Avoid Assumptions - Don't make the mistake of assuming that other drivers are
   going to do or what you think they should do.
 * Use Turn Signals - While you can't depend on others always signaling their
   intentions when driving, you can certainly control whether or not they have
   realistic expectations for your actions.
 * Buckle Up - Wearing your seat belt is an essential safety tip for drivers.









EMERGENCY PLANNING




A definite plan to deal with major emergencies is an important element of OH&S
programs.

Besides the major benefit of providing guidance during an emergency, developing
the plan has other advantages. You may discover unrecognized hazardous
conditions that would aggravate an emergency situation and you can work to
eliminate them. The planning process may bring to light deficiencies, such as
the lack of resources (equipment, trained personnel, supplies), or items that
can be corrected before an emergency occurs. In addition, an emergency plan
promotes safety awareness and shows the organization's commitment to the safety
of workers.

The lack of an emergency plan could lead to severe losses such as multiple
casualties and possible financial collapse of the organization.

Since emergencies will occur, preplanning is necessary. An urgent need for rapid
decisions, shortage of time, and lack of resources and trained personnel can
lead to chaos during an emergency. Time and circumstances in an emergency mean
that normal channels of authority and communication cannot be relied upon to
function routinely. The stress of the situation can lead to poor judgment
resulting in severe losses. A well thought out, well organized emergency
response plan will help to eliminate these issues.









ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS




Having environmental awareness is to understand the fragility of our environment
and the importance of its protection. Preserving the environment that we live in
for future generations







EXCAVATION TRENCHING SHORING




Trench collapses, or cave-ins, pose the greatest risk to workers’ lives. When
done safely, trenching operations can reduce worker exposure to other potential
hazards include falls, falling loads, hazardous atmospheres, and incidents
involving mobile equipment. OSHA standards require that employers provide
workplaces free of recognized hazards. The employer must comply with the
trenching and excavation requirements of 29 CFR 1926.651 and 1926.652 or
comparable OSHA-approved state plan requirements.







EYE SAFETY




Statistics indicate that most eye injuries can be prevented by using adequate
shields and glasses. Standard safety glasses protect eyes from flying particles
of metal, wood, stone, plastic or glass coming from the front only. Safety
glasses with semi-side shields protect eyes from flying particles coming from
the front or the side.







EYE WASH & SHOWERS




Emergency eye washes and showers are used in labs, chemical plants, paper mills,
and other environments with potentially harmful chemicals or materials. They're
often required to meet government regulations and safety standards. Combination
eye-wash stations are all-in-one eye wash and shower units. Drench hoses serve
as fixed eye-rinse stations or can be removed from their holder for directing
the spray where needed.







FATIGUE




Fatigue is a feeling of tiredness. It may be sudden or gradual in onset. It is a
normal phenomenon if it follows prolonged physical or mental activity, and
resolves completely with rest. However, it may be a symptom of a medical
condition if it is prolonged, severe, progressive, or occurs without
provocation.







FIRE CAULK




Fire caulking is important in preventing the spread of deadly fires in
commercial properties and homes that are more vulnerable. If a fire were to
spread into electrical systems or in other vulnerable areas, it can cause a lot
of damage. Fire caulking works by containing the fire to the room in which it
originated.







FIRE WARDEN




A fire warden also plays a crucial role if fire breaks out. In the event of a
fire emergency, fire wardens must keep employers and visitors safe and ensuring
a safe evacuation. 







FIRST AID




First and immediate assistance given to any person suffering from either a minor
or serious illness or injury. First aid is the first and immediate assistance
given to any person suffering from either a minor or serious illness or injury,
with care provided to preserve life, prevent the condition from worsening, or to
promote recovery.









FLAMMABLES AND COMBUSTIBLES




Since the advent of the industrial revolution, the use of non-water-based
chemicals has increased dramatically. Exposure to the hazards associated with
these chemicals has also increased. One potential hazard is flammability. To
prevent fires, hazardous liquids require special precautions in storage,
handling and use. The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and the
International Fire Code (IFC) have developed guidelines for the safe storage and
use of flammables.







GAS HAZARDS




The primary purpose of the Gas Hazards Control Program shall be to promote
safety in the repair of marine vessels and facilities by promoting the training
and certification of persons engaged in inspecting such vessels and facilities
to determine their gas free status.







GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER (GFCI)




A ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI), or Residual Current Device (RCD) is a
type of circuit breaker which shuts off electric power when it senses an
imbalance between the outgoing and incoming current. The main purpose is to
protect people from an electric shock caused when some of the current travels
through a person's body due to an electrical fault such as a short circuit,
insulation failure, or equipment malfunction. Standard circuit breakers shut off
power when the current is too high, like 10, 15, or 20 amps, but a mere 0.030
amps through a body can cause paralysis of skeletal muscles and stop the human
heart. The GFCI / RCD breaks the circuit when it detects an imbalance of only
0.005 amps (0.030 amps in Australia and some European and Asian countries).







GUIDANCE ON SIMULTANEOUS OPERATIONS




The risks associated with simultaneous operations (SIMOPS) in support of
offshore oil and gas exploration and production, for example, related
construction and survey activities, can be great and potentially dangerous







HAND WRIST FINGER




OSHA's Position On Hand, Wrist and Finger Safety Training Consider the fact that
we use our hands, wrists and fingers more than any other individual parts of our
bodies. Whether it’s in construction, driving, office or laboratory work, these
essential body components are in constant use and, as such, are susceptible to
injury.







HAZMAT




Hazardous materials response (HAZMAT) team means an organized group of
employees, designated by the employer, who are expected to perform work to
handle and control actual or potential leaks or spills of hazardous substances
requiring possible close approach to the substance. The team members perform
responses to releases or potential releases of hazardous substances for the
purpose of control or stabilization of the incident.







HAZWOPER OVERVIEW




Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response (HAZWOPER; HAZ-waw-pər) is a
set of guidelines produced and maintained by the Occupational Safety and Health
Administration which regulates hazardous waste operations and emergency services
in the United States and its territories.







HEALTH AND WELLNESS




The primary difference between health and wellness is that health is the goal
and wellness is the active process of achieving it. You truly cannot have health
without first achieving wellness. Wellness has a direct influence on overall
health, which is essential for living a robust, happy, and fulfilled life.

chromium. It is usually produced by an industrial process. Cr (VI) is known to
cause cancer. In addition, it targets the respiratory system, kidneys, liver,
skin and eyes.







HOT WORK




Hot work is a process that can be a source of ignition when flammable material
is present or can be a fire hazard regardless of the presence of flammable
material in the workplace. Common hot work processes involve welding, soldering,
cutting, brazing burning and the use of powder-actuated tools or similar fire
producing operations outside of designated hot work areas

you can do to reduce your risk. If you think someone is using your personal
information to open accounts, file taxes, or make purchases, visit
IdentityTheft.gov to report and recover from identity theft.







INCIDENT REPORTING AND INVESTIGATION




Accident/incident reporting and investigation is judged from a prevention of
severity and reduction in frequency standard. In other words, if there are fewer
accidents/incidents and they are less severe, the reporting and investigation
process is working.





INCIDENT REPORTING INVESTIGATION




OSHA strongly encourages employers to investigate all incidents in which a
worker was hurt, as well as close calls (sometimes called "near misses"), in
which a worker might have been hurt if the circumstances had been slightly
different. In the past, the term "accident" was often used when referring ...







INFORMATION GATHERING REPORT WRITING




When it comes to getting a clear information gathering concept, the simplest way
to define it would be the process of collecting information about something you
are interested in. For those in the cybersecurity industry, this is the first
step to take during the earlier stages of any hacking activity (both cracking
and ethical hacking), when any black- or white-hat researcher needs to gain as
much information as possible about the desired target







INTRODUCTION TO OSHA

Administration, a Federal agency of the U.S. Department of Labor OSHA’s
responsibility is to improve worker safety and health protection On December 29,
1970, President Nixon signed the OSH Act.







INTRODUCTION TO SEMS




The Standardized Emergency Management System (SEMS) was introduced in 1991 after
the East Bay Hills Fire in Oakland Hills. SEMS was adopted in 1993 under
Government Code Section 8607. SEMS intent is to improve coordination of Federal,
State and local emergency management and response.







JOURNEY MANAGEMENT




Journey management is a planned and systematic process for reducing
transportation-related risks in a company’s operations. In short, it is a key
element of safety in the workplace — for fleets and other employers. Across all
industries, crashes cost employers approximately $9.25 billion a year, according
to the National Safety Council.







JSEA




JSEA - Job Safety and Environmental Analysis. Today, many companies within the

seem daunting. There is, however, general agreement among leaders that certain
skills are more important than others. These, then, are the skills that you need
to develop first if you aspire to become a leader—and more importantly, wish to
be an effective leader.









MARINE DEBRIS




Marine debris, also known as marine litter, is human-created waste that has
deliberately or accidentally been released in a sea or ocean. Floating oceanic
debris tends to accumulate at the center of gyres and on coastlines, frequently
washing aground, when it is known as beach litter or tide-wrack.

occurs when a new influenza virus emerges and spreads around the world, and most
people do not have immunity. Viruses that have caused past pandemics typically
originated from animal influenza viruses.







PINCH POINTS




A pinch point, also called a nip point, is a point on a machine where a person
or a part of their body can get caught in between moving parts. Gears, rollers,
belt drives, and pulleys are all examples of typical pinch points in the
workplace. OSHA standard 1910.211 provides guidance on what constitutes a nip
point







PORTABLE FIRE EXTINGUISHERS




The employer shall provide portable fire extinguishers and shall mount, locate
and identify them so that they are readily accessible to employees without
subjecting the employees to possible injury. 1910.157 (c) (2) Only approved
portable fire extinguishers shall be used to meet the requirements of this
section.







PORTABLE TOOLS




These tools help us to easily perform tasks that otherwise would be difficult or
impossible. However, these simple tools can be hazardous and have the potential
for causing severe injuries when used or maintained improperly. Special
attention toward hand and power tool safety is necessary in order to reduce or
eliminate these hazards.







POWERED PLATFORMS




The powered platform standard was promulgated in 1989 with some of the
provisions based on the American National Standard A-120, a national consensus
standard, which prescribed recommended practices for powered platforms. OSHA
believes some of the collection of information requirements in this standard
impose a one time burden only such as developing written work procedures and
preparing emergency action plans.







PROCESS SAFETY MANAGEMENT (PSM) AND METHODS




Process safety management (PSM) is addressed in specific standards for the
general and construction industries. OSHA's standard emphasizes the management
of hazards associated with highly hazardous chemicals and establishes a
comprehensive management program that integrates technologies, procedures, and
management practices.







PROCESS SAFETY V2




Welcome to the general awareness course on safely using, handling, moving, and
storing highly hazardous chemicals. This training session is for employees and
employees of contractors who work with processes that involve highly hazardous
chemicals. It is designed for workplaces covered under Occupational Safety &
Health Administration’s (OSHA) Process Safety Management Standard (29 CFR
1910.119)







PROGRESSIVE DISCIPLINE




It allows employees to make complaints about unsafe working conditions to OSHA,
the federal agency responsible for enforcement of the OSH Act. For that reason,
it prohibits employers from disciplining or discharging employees in retaliation
for exercising their rights under the OSH Act.







REASONABLE SUSPICION DRUG TESTING




Drug testing with reasonable suspicion happens when an employer has reason to
believe an employee is impaired. In most cases, the employer will advise the
individual not to return to work until their drug test results are back.







RETURN TO WORK




On June 18, 2020, the U.S. Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (“OSHA”) issued guidance to assist employers and workers in
safely returning to work and reopening businesses deemed non-essential.







RIGGING




Whenever there is any doubt as to safety, the operator shall have the authority
to stop and refuse to handle loads until safety has been assured. 1926.753(c)(2)
A qualified rigger (a rigger who is also a qualified person) shall inspect the
rigging prior to each shift in accordance with § 1926.251.







RISK ASSESSMENT




Identifying hazards by using the risk assessment process is a key element when
ensuring the health and safety of your employees and customers. OSHA requires
businesses to conduct risk assessments. According to regulations set by OSHA,
assessing hazards or potential risk will determine the personal protective gears
and equipment a worker may need for their job.







ROOT CAUSE




Concerning Root Cause Analysis OSHA says: During an incident investigation, an
employer must determine which factors contributed to the incident, and both OSHA
and the EPA encourage employers to go beyond the minimum investigation required
and conduct a root cause analysis. A root cause analysis allows an employer to
discover the underlying or systemic, rather than the generalized or immediate,
causes of an incident.







SAFETY ATTITUDE ACTIONS




When you have a positive safety attitude, you think first and then take action.
Your mind is able to recognize unsafe habits or behavior. You stay alert while
on the job. Your positive safety attitude helps you to recognize hazards that
arise and respond appropriately.
