•    Blood borne Pathogens

 

 

 OSHA has determined that employees face a significant health risk as a
result of occupational exposure to blood and
OPIM (Other Potentially Infectious Material). This exposure can be
minimized or eliminated by implementing an Exposure Control Program
to manage the use of a combination of engineering and work practice
controls, personal protective clothing and equipment, training, medical
surveillance, Hepatitis B vaccination, signs and labels, and other
provisions. OSHA enacted the Occupational Exposure to Bloodborne
Pathogens standard in 1991( 29 CFR 1910.1030).

•    Scaffold User Awareness

 

The scaffold as a temporary work platform

 

A scaffold is simply an elevated platform that supports workers and materials. Lay a board across a couple of tall buckets and you have a supported scaffold — but not a safe one. Most scaffolds used for construction work are complex structures and workers need to know how to erect them, dismantle them, and work from them safely. Unsafe scaffolds endanger workers in many ways. Components can break, collapse, or give way. Planks, boards, decks, or handrails can fail. In some cases, entire structures have collapsed. Even on sound scaffolds, workers can slip or lose their balance, and without appropriate protection, they don’t have to fall far to get hurt. More often than not, scaffold accidents can be traced to untrained or improperly trained workers. Scaffolds can be complex structures. Too often, untrained workers use makeshift staging, overload platforms, fail to inspect supports, or use scaffolds for the wrong tasks. This guidebook and Oregon OSHA’s Subdivision 3/L scaffold rules can help you learn what you need to know so that a temporary work platform won’t let you down.

The training shall include the following areas, as applicable:

(1) The nature of any electrical hazards, fall hazards and falling object hazards in the work area;

(2) The correct procedures for dealing with electrical hazards and for erecting, maintaining, and disassembling the fall protection systems and falling object protection systems being used;

(3) The proper use of the scaffold, and the proper handling of materials on the scaffold;

(4) The maximum intended load and the load-carrying capacities of the scaffolds used; and

(5) Any other pertinent requirements of this subpart.

(b) The employer shall have each employee who is involved in erecting, disassembling, moving, operating, repairing, maintaining, or inspecting a scaffold trained by a competent person to recognize any hazards associated with the work in question. The training shall include the following topics, as applicable:

(1) The nature of scaffold hazards;

(2) The correct procedures for erecting, disassembling, moving, operating, repairing, inspecting, and maintaining the type of scaffold in question;

(3) The design criteria, maximum intended load-carrying capacity and intended use of the scaffold;

(4) Any other pertinent requirements of this subpart.

(c) When the employer has reason to believe that an employee lacks the skill or understanding needed for safe work involving the erection, use or dismantling of scaffolds, the employer shall retrain each such employee so that the requisite proficiency is regained.

Retraining is required in at least the following situations:

(1) Where changes at the worksite present a hazard about which an employee has not been previously trained; or

(2) Where changes in the types of scaffolds, fall protection, falling object protection, or other equipment present a hazard about which an employee has not been previously trained; or

(3) Where inadequacies in an affected employee’s work involving scaffolds indicate that the employee has not retained the requisite proficiency.
