Work Practices and Engineering Controls-www.safetyisimple.com

MARCOM's "Work Practices and Engineering Controls" HAZWOPER Safety Video Program assists facilities in complying with the employee training requirements of OSHA's HAZWOPER regulation (29 CFR 1910.120), and helps employees understand the nature and the "behavior" of hazardous chemicals, and reduce or eliminate potential exposure to hazardous materials in their work environments. Hazardous materials and waste are part of many work situations, and can be found on many types of job sites. OSHA feels that it is so important for employees to know how to recognize these potentially dangerous substances (as well as how to handle and dispose of them properly) they have mandated that anyone working with these materials receive comprehensive training in this area. In 1976, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) to regulate the handling of hazardous waste "from cradle to grave". Since then other regulations have followed, including OSHA's 29 CFR 1910.120, also known as HAZWOPER. As part of these regulations, there are varying requirements for employee training, depending on an employee's specific level of involvement with hazardous materials.

Areas covered in the program include HAZMAT work practices, HAZMAT engineering controls, The Site Safety and Health Plan, responsibilities of the Site Safety and Health Officer, ventilation systems, remote-controlled equipment, the use of eyewash stations, and more. The safety video program comes with a comprehensive leader's guide, reproducible scheduling & attendance form, employee quiz, training log and training certificate. This program can be used as the basis for approximately two hours of classroom training.

The objective of MARCOM's "Work Practices and Engineering Controls" HAZWOPER Video Program is to assist facilities in complying with the employee training requirements of OSHA's HAZWOPER regulation (29 CFR 1910.120), to help employees understand the nature and the "behavior" of hazardous chemicals, and to reduce or eliminate potential exposure to hazardous materials in their work environments.
