Description
With the myriad of regulations employers face, many tend to fly under the radar. This presentation will address necessary but at times overlooked regulations that must be researched and complied with. The speaker will discuss OSHA’s Heat Illness Standard, which applies to all employees who work outdoors or indoors during times of excessive heat, and also the OSHA guidelines for employees working in cold environments, particularly focused on industrial freezers and refrigerated buildings. Also discussed will be details on OSHA’s SB 29 CFR 1926.21 (b) (4), which is focused on potential hazards from injurious plants or animals that employees may encounter on a site.
