Bloodborne Pathogens v3
There are many jobs that employees are dying to get, But there are none worth dying for. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration estimates that more than 5.6 million workers in health care and related occupations such as nurses, custodians, maintenance staff and research personnel are at risk of occupational exposure to bloodborne pathogens. In addition to the obvious risk to the health care community, many other occupations also encounter potential exposures to bloodborne pathogens: teachers, custodians, sanitation workers, or any concerned coworker in any job offering help to another sick or hurt team member. If your job duties include even occasional contact with blood or other infectious materials, you need to know how to effectively protect yourself against potential bloodborne pathogens, because understanding simple precautions can greatly minimize your chances of contracting a bloodborne disease.

Each year, more than 200 deaths and 5,000 injuries result from fires and explosions in the workplace. The National Fire Protection Association reports over 115,000 non-residential structural fires for 2004, accounting for $2.4 billion in direct property damage.
Those are the losses due to fires, but there are other hazardous situations that can threaten a worker's life and limb. These include severe weather, medical emergencies, chemical release, and bomb threats. We can't completely eliminate dangerous workplace situations, but we can reduce the number of associated injuries and deaths attributable to these incidents.

Working with electricity can be dangerous. Every year, between 300 and 500 people in the U.S. are killed by electrocutions at work. To handle electricity safely, you need to know how it acts, how it can be controlled, and its hazards. Workers performing service or maintenance on machinery and equipment may be injured by the unexpected startup of the machinery or equipment, or release of stored electrical energy in the equipment. In fact, failure to lock out machinery before working on it is a major cause of injury and death in the United States. These deaths and injuries can be prevented by establishing and following an effective lockout/tagout program.

You're taking this training because you work with flammable and combustible liquids. This may not seem like a really big deal. After all, gasoline is a flammable liquid, and practically everyone uses it. Of course, about one gas station in every thirteen experiences a fire every year. Flammable and combustible liquids are just as dangerous in your workplace. That's why agencies like the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, or OSHA, regulate workplaces that use flammable and combustible liquids. To keep you safe, the Code of Federal Regulations demands a lot of employers and manufacturers. But a lot is up to you as well. Something as mundane as whether or not you promptly put a liquid in a flammable liquid storage cabinet can be a matter of life or death.

HAZWOPER Refresher Training v2 - Module 01 - Scope, Application and Training Requirements
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) 29 CFR 1910.120 regulations mandate training for all individuals who are involved in Hazardous Waste Operations or in emergency response to hazardous substance releases - this is usually called HAZWOPER training. All new employees must be trained before entering work assignments in the scope of this standard and contaminated work zones. They must also receive refresher training. This is Part One of a 13-part series of modules on HAZWOPER designed to provide the annual refresher training as required by OSHA for all employees affected by this regulation.

HAZWOPER Refresher Training v2 - Module 09 - Confined Spaces
This is Part Nine of a 13-part series of modules on HAZWOPER designed to provide the annual refresher training as required by OSHA for all employees affected by this regulation. Part Nine covers confined spaces. Many work environments contain spaces that are considered 'confined' because their shape and size make conditions difficult for employees who must enter, work in, and exit them. There are many instances where employees who work in confined spaces face increased risk of exposure to serious hazards. In some cases, confined space work keeps employees closer to hazards, such as asphyxiating atmospheres. Work-related accidents in confined spaces usually result in serious injury or death. For this reason, special procedures must be followed when working in confined spaces and they are reviewed in this module.

This is Part 11 of a 13-part series of modules on HAZWOPER designed to provide the annual refresher training as required by OSHA for all employees affected by this regulation. Part 11 covers site control. If uncontrolled, a spill or release of hazardous waste could spread rapidly, leading to contamination on a large scale. For this reason, site control is required on a hazardous waste site. Site control helps limit the spread of contamination in the event of a spill or release of a hazardous substance and is a critical component of the HAZWOPER standard. The site control program is designed to reduce the spread of hazardous substances from contaminated areas to clean areas, to identify and isolate contaminated areas of the site, to facilitate emergency evacuation and medical care, to prevent unauthorized entry to the site, and to deter vandalism and theft. This module examines the elements of a site control program and how they can be implemented.

Because the possibility of damage to people, property and the environment is so serious, prompt and proper emergency response is critical. Training in safe emergency response practices will reduce the chances of harm to people or property. All organizations must plan for emergencies. Depending on operations, formal HAZWOPER emergency response planning may be required and that is covered in this module.
