BEHAVIOR-BASED SAFETY TRAINING

Behavior-Based Safety Training

Behavior-Based Safety (BBS) is the “application of science of behavior change to real world 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.” BBS “focuses on what people do, analyzes why they do it, and then applies a research-supported intervention strategy to improve what people do”.  At its very core BBS is based on a larger scientific field called organizational behavior management.

West Nile Virus Safety
The West Nile virus (WNV) is most often spread to people from the bite of an infected mosquito. The WNV normally cycles between mosquitoes and birds. However, people may be infected if they are bitten by a WNV-infected mosquito.

Outdoor workers are at risk of WNV infection from the bite of infected mosquitoes. Workers at risk include farmers, foresters, landscapers, groundskeepers and gardeners, painters, roofers, pavers, construction workers, laborers, mechanics, and other outdoor workers. Entomologists, wildlife biologists, and other field workers are also at risk while working outdoors.

Laboratory, field, and clinical workers who perform necropsies of infected birds or handle WNV-infected tissues or fluids are also at risk of WNV infection if their skin is penetrated or cut. The virus can be transmitted through contact with the blood or other tissues of infected animals.

Workers at risk should receive training that describes and reinforces the potential occupational hazards and risks of WNV exposure and infection. The importance of the timely reporting of all workplace injuries and illnesses should be emphasized. A medical surveillance system should be in place which includes the reporting of symptoms consistent with WNV infection, laboratory incidents or accidents involving possible WNV exposures, and employee absenteeism.

ALOHA
ALOHA (Areal Locations of Hazardous Atmospheres) is a program designed to model chemical releases for emergency responders and planners. It can estimate how a toxic cloud might disperse after a chemical release and also features several fires and explosions scenarios.
ALOHA displays its estimate as a threat zone, which is an area where a hazard (such as toxicity, flammability, thermal radiation, or damaging overpressure) has exceeded a user-specified Level of Concern (LOC).
With the help of ALOHA, you can calculate how quickly chemicals are escaping from tanks, puddles (on both land and water), and gas pipelines and predict how that release rate changes over time.
ALOHA allows you to model many release scenarios: toxic gas clouds, BLEVEs (Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapor Explosions), jet fires, vapor cloud explosions, and pool fires. Depending on the release scenario, ALOHA evaluates the corresponding type of hazard.

ALOHA is developed jointly by NOAA and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

Chlorine Safety/Response
The course explains the hazards of and what precautions to take when handling, storing and using chlorine.  Chlorine is a powerful disinfectant and bleaching agent. In both gas and liquid forms, chlorine is a toxic substance that presents a number of hazards. If proper precautions are not taken while working with or around pure chlorine, serious injury or even death can result.

This course will cover the following:

      • What is Chlorine
      • Hazards of Chlorine
      • Employer Responsibilities
      • Examples of safe work procedures
      • Preparing for emergencies
      • Investigating incidents
      • Working safely around chlorine
      • Preventing and controlling exposure
      • First aid
Chlorine Ton Cylinder Response
Among the major uses of chlorine gas and its compounds is the disinfection of public drinking water supplies, swimming pools, and treatment of sewage. In industry, chlorine is used to treat industrial wastewater and as a raw material in the manufacture of many types of chemicals and finished products such as plastic. But as useful as chlorine is, it can also be quite deadly. It was used as a chemical weapon in World War I and was found to be more effective than bullets. The majority of accidents, injuries, and deaths that occur from unprotected and uncontrolled exposure to chlorine occur because safe handling procedures were not followed.

BASIC INFORMATION ABOUT CHLORINE IN THE MSDS 

• The MSDS explains the hazards of and what precautions to take when handling, storing and using chlorine.

• The chemical symbol for chlorine is Cl or Cl2. At room temperature, chlorine is a greenish-yellow gas, and an amber color as a liquid.

• Chlorine is heavier than air – an important point to remember in the event of a leak.

• Chlorine monitoring instruments must be capable of taking measurements near the floor.

• Cl2 reacts with water to form hypochlorous acid and must be isolated from water until proper mixing can occur. Make sure piping is dry before admitting chlorine. Use only dry, oil-free air for purging; never use water to test for chlorine leaks.

• Chlorine is non-flammable but reacts violently with some chemicals.

• Frostbite occurs if chlorine liquid is splashed on the skin. If chlorine gas is swallowed, severe burns to the mouth, throat and stomach will be expected. Serious burns to eyes are also potential hazards.

• Cl2 reacts violently with oil and grease creating spontaneous combustion.

• Chlorine expands very rapidly.

CAMEO Computer aided Management of Emergency Operations
  Both beginner and advanced training for any responder looking to use one of the most advanced HAZMAT Response Management Software programs. CAMEO is a system of software applications used widely to plan for and respond to chemical emergencies. It is one of the tools developed by EPA’s Chemical Emergency Preparedness and Prevention Office (CEPPO) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Office of Response and Restoration (NOAA), to assist front-line chemical emergency planners and responders. They can use CAMEO to access, store, and evaluate information critical for developing emergency plans. In addition, CAMEO supports regulatory compliance by helping users meet the chemical inventory reporting requirements of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA, also known as SARA Title III). CAMEO also can be used with a separate software application called LandView to display EPA environmental databases and demographic/economic information to support analysis of environmental justice issues.
Cadmium Training Chromium Community Emergency Response Team (CERT)
The Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) Program educates people about disaster preparedness for hazards that may impact their area and trains them in basic disaster response skills, such as fire safety, light search and rescue, team organization, and disaster medical operations. Using the training learned in the classroom and during exercises, CERT members can assist others in their neighborhood or workplace following an event when professional responders are not immediately available to help. CERT members also are encouraged to support emergency response agencies by taking a more active role in emergency preparedness projects in their community.

      • Develop a strategy and schedule for reviewing EOC resource requirements and technology needs.
Emergency Response Plan

Emergencies and disasters can occur any time without warning. The more you are prepared for them, the better you will be able to act, minimizing panic and confusion when an emergency occurs. Relatively speaking, small businesses may have more to lose than large companies when a disaster — natural or otherwise — strikes. Because of high costs or lack of resources, many smaller companies have less rigorous business-continuity plans in place, and some have no formal processes at all. The purpose of this bulletin is to help employers develop emergency response plans that will meet the specific needs of their small businesses. Your plan should take into account the type of business you are in and the nature of your worksite.

 

Topics will cover:

How well prepared is your business now?

What procedures do you already have in place for an emergency situation?

What potential emergency situations could occur?

Planning will include…

  • Individual roles and responsibilities
  • Potential threats, hazards, and protective actions
  • Notification, warning, and communications procedures
  • How to locate family members in an emergency
  • Emergency response procedures
  • Evacuation, shelter, and accountability procedures
  • Location and use of common emergency equipment

Aerial Lift Safety
(29 CFR 1910.67) Aerial lifts are vehicle-mounted, boom-supported aerial platforms, such as cherry pickers or bucket trucks, used to access utility lines and other above ground job-sites. The major causes of fatalities are falls, electrocutions, and collapses or tip overs. Employers must take measures to ensure the safe use of aerial lifts by their workers if they are required to use this equipment in the course of their employment.  The aerial lift truck, more commonly called a bucket truck, is by far the most complex form of aerial lift device. OSHA has developed its own standards for aerial lift truck operation. You may be thinking that operating a bucket truck is simple: All you have to do is jump in the bucket, hit a few switches, and you’re there. But sometimes just getting a bucket truck to the work area is a job in itself. A small bucket truck weighs 10,000 pounds and cannot stop on a dime. This is why bucket trucks are notorious for hitting other vehicles in rear-impact accidents. They are also known for getting stuck in off-road situations, especially in wet conditions. In addition, bucket trucks have poor rear visibility and should not be backed up unless the driver finds it absolutely necessary and has a spotter. In short, no one should work in a bucket truck without proper training. Operating a bucket truck requires specific qualifications, which include instruction in the following operations:

      • Proper work area set-up
      • Performing an inspection
      • Understanding hydraulics
      • Correct use of fall arrest equipment
      • Boom operation
      • Maintain proper clearances
      • Emergency procedures

Egress & Emergency Plans
Is your agency prepared for a workplace emergency? Does your agency have an Emergency Action Plan (EAP) in place? Do your employees know escape routes and the locations of fire extinguishers and first aid kits?

Since the events of Sept. 11, 2001, these questions have been on the minds of people all over the United States. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has taken steps to clarify and define what is required under “Means of Egress and Emergency Action Plan,” Subpart E

Agencies are required to train a sufficient number of individuals to help assist with evacuation procedures. “Written procedures should be reviewed with all employees upon implementation of the plan, when employee responsibilities change or if there is a revision to the plan itself. The standard also requires that a sufficient number of adequately trained personnel be available at the agency at all times during business hours.” (Preparing for Workplace Emergencies, 2001). And remember: If training is not reinforced it will be forgotten. Consider retraining employees annually

Course objectives:

      • Define key terms
      • Discuss general requirements
      • Discuss Means of Egress
      • Discuss employee emergency plans and fire prevention plans
Ergonomics
This topic covers ergonomics, or the science of fitting a job to the worker performing that job. Ergonomic hazards include repetitive stress injuries, carpal tunnel syndrome, and other musculosketal disorders (MSDs).

The goal of ergonomics is to reduce a worker’s exposure to MSD risk factors by changing the design of a workstation or the way a job is performed, allowing workers to rotate through different jobs, or providing personal protective equipment (PPE). Although there is currently no specific OSHA standard for ergonomics, employers have a duty to address ergonomic issues under the General Duty Clause of the Occupational Safety and Health Act.

Laboratory Safety-Biological Ladder Safety

Some workers ask: “Why do I have to be qualified to use a ladder? I can just throw it against a building and climb up; what’s the big deal?” Falling is the big deal. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics 1994 Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries, 8.8% of occupational deaths are related to falling. Falling isn’t the only hazard involved with using a ladder. Lifting the ladder itself also is a major cause of injuries. Using improper technique while lifting a ladder can lead to lower back injuries so severe that they may cause an employee to miss work or even suffer a lifetime of pain. Maneuvering a 100-pound ladder off a truck and through a typical yard, around obstacles such as lawn chairs and toys, can be challenging to say the least. Anyone who works with a ladder should be able to answer all of the following:

      • How to inspect a ladder
      • How to survey the area
      • How to lift a ladder properly
      • How to determine where the balance points are

Lockout/Tagout (LOTO)
Workers performing service or maintenance on machinery and equipment may be exposed to injuries from the unexpected energization, startup of the machinery or equipment, or release of stored energy in the equipment.

The Lockout/Tagout standard requires the adoption and implementation of practices and procedures to shut down equipment, isolate it from its energy source(s), and prevent the release of potentially hazardous energy while maintenance and servicing activities are being performed. It contains minimum performance requirements and definitive criteria for establishing an effective program for the control of hazardous energy. However, employers have the flexibility to develop lockout/tagout programs that are suitable for their respective facilities.

Logger Safety Machine Guarding

Moving machine parts have the potential to cause severe workplace injuries, such as crushed fingers or hands, amputations, burns, or blindness. Safeguards are essential for protecting workers from these preventable injuries. Any machine part, function, or process that may cause injury must be safeguarded. When the operations of a machine or accidental contact injure the operator or others in the vicinity, the hazards must be eliminated or controlled. This course contains general information on the various hazards of mechanical motion and techniques for protecting workers.

Means of Egress and Emergency Plans (OSHA Subpart E)
Is your agency prepared for a workplace emergency? Does your agency have an Emergency Action Plan (EAP) in place? Do your employees know escape routes and the locations of fire extinguishers and first aid kits?

Since the events of Sept. 11, 2001, these questions have been on the minds of people all over the United States. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has taken steps to clarify and define what is required under “Means of Egress and Emergency Action Plan,” Subpart E

Agencies are required to train a sufficient number of individuals to help assist with evacuation procedures. “Written procedures should be reviewed with all employees upon implementation of the plan, when employee responsibilities change or if there is a revision to the plan itself. The standard also requires that a sufficient number of adequately trained personnel be available at the agency at all times during business hours.” (Preparing for Workplace Emergencies, 2001). And remember: If training is not reinforced it will be forgotten. Consider retraining employees annually

Course objectives:

      • Define key terms

Recording, Reporting, Record Keeping-OSHA Regulated Substances Respiratory Protection W/(Fit Test)

Respiratory protection training is mandatory for any worker who is required to wear a respirator. Respirators are an effective method of protection against designated hazards when properly selected and worn. Respirator use is encouraged, even when exposures are below the exposure limit, to provide an additional level of comfort and protection for workers. However, if a respirator is used improperly or not kept clean, the respirator itself can become a hazard to the worker. Sometimes, workers may wear respirators to avoid exposures to hazards, even if the amount of hazardous substance does not exceed the limits set by OSHA standards. If your employer provides respirators for your voluntary use, or if you provide your own respirator, you need to take certain precautions to be sure that the respirator itself does not present a hazard.

Fit testing is required for mandatory use of all tight-fitting facepieces and recommended for voluntary use. OSHA 1910.134(f) states: “The employer shall ensure that an employee using a tight-fitting facepiece respirator is fit tested prior to initial use of the respirator, whenever a different respirator facepiece (size, style, model or make) is used, and at least annually thereafter. Learning and remembering the knowledge and skills you need to use your respirator correctly will help ensure that your respirator protects you.

Training may include the following:

  • Why you need to use the respirator
  • What the respirator can and cannot do to protect you
  • How to properly inspect, put on and take off, and use your respirator
  • How to check the seal of your respirator (also called a “user seal check”)
  • How to use the respirator effectively in emergency situations, including situations in which the respirator doesn’t work properly
  • How to recognize medical signs and symptoms that may limit or prevent you from using a respirator
  • How improper fit, usage, or maintenance can reduce your respirator’s ability to protect you
  • What the procedures are for maintenance and storage of the respirator; and
  • What the requirements are for federal OSHA’s or your State OSHA’s Respiratory Protection Standards.

Duration of course: 4 hours

Silica Safety Training
This Course will cover the following material:

Silica

Crystalline silica is a common mineral found in the earth’s crust. Materials like sand, stone, concrete, and mortar contain crystalline silica. It is also used to make products such as glass, pottery, ceramics, bricks, and artificial stone.

Using a handheld power saw to cut masonry, concrete, stone, or other silica-containing materials can generate respirable crystalline silica dust. When inhaled, the small particles of silica can irreversibly damage the lungs.

Respirable crystalline silica – very small particles at least 100 times smaller than ordinary sand you might find on beaches and playgrounds – is created when cutting, sawing, grinding, drilling, and crushing stone, rock, concrete, brick, block, and mortar. Activities such as abrasive blasting with sand; sawing brick or concrete; sanding or drilling into concrete walls; grinding mortar; manufacturing brick, concrete blocks, stone countertops, or ceramic products; and cutting or crushing stone result in worker exposures to respirable crystalline silica dust. Industrial sand used in certain operations, such as foundry work and hydraulic fracturing (fracking), is also a source of respirable crystalline silica exposure. About 2.3 million people in the U.S. are exposed to silica at work.

This course briefs about the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) recently updated the silica standard to increase the protection of workers through:

– Exposure identification sampling

– Medical evaluations

– Continued medical surveillance

– Lower Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL)

– Specific guideline for common construction tasks

– Requiring a silica exposure control program

– Addressing appropriate hazard exposure control

Topics may include:

  • Health Hazards of Silica Exposures
  • Exposure Limits and Specific Construction Task Identified in Task 1 of the Standard
  • Exposure Assessment Options
  • Exposure Control Options
  • Hazard Communication
  • Dust controls that can be used to minimize the amount of dust that gets into the air when using handheld power saws

Warehouse Safety

Objectives

To explain common potential warehouse hazards and the safety precautions and procedures that are important to warehouse safety. The result should be closer attention to equipment and tasks that could cause accidents, more effort to follow safety rules, and fewer accidents and near misses in the warehouse

Introduction/Overview

A safe, orderly, efficient warehouse is a key to a successful operation. The warehouse plays an essential role in the way goods are sent, received, stored, and circulated throughout the facility.

With so much going on and so much to keep track of, a warehouse may also have more potential for accidents than areas with more limited functions. So it’s especially important to pay close attention to safety in the warehouse.

Today, we’re going to review some of the potential warehouse hazards and ways we reduce risks. There are so many areas to cover that we can’t cover every single detail on each one. The purpose of this safety meeting is to get you to look at the warehouse with safety in mind—so that you’ll always be alert to the hazards and always do what’s necessary to prevent accidents.
