 OSHA has released more than a dozen fact sheets that provide guidance on the respirable crystalline silica standard for construction. One fact sheet is an overview of the silica standard. The other fact sheets provide employers with information on how to fully and properly implement controls, work practices, and if needed, respiratory protection for each of the 18 tasks listed in Table 1— Specified Exposure Control Methods under the standard.

 Jay Jamali was once again a featured presenter at the annual ASSE Seminarfest in in Las Vegas on February 9-17 2017. This is an annual intensive 5-day conference with many interesting and informative sessions on the latest in the safety industry. Jay presented 3 sessions:
Confined Space Evaluation, Entry, & Rescue  In this seminar, attendees learned how to evaluate spaces to determine if they are permit-required confined spaces. They also reviewed the proper entry and rescue procedures into and from confined spaces. The following topics were covered: development of a written program; training requirements for entry and rescue; inventory; monitoring; ventilation; permits; record keeping; retrieval; communication; contractors; and rescue team evaluation. The latest confined space equipment was available for your inspection during the seminar. Students learned to:
Emergency Preparedness, Planning & Response  This workshop provided a practical approach to planning, preparing and responding to an emergency. Topics covered include: OSHA/EPA/DOT requirements, training, written programs, checklists, Emergency Response Teams (ERT), evacuations, fire, hazmat, medical emergency, earthquake, tornado, bomb threat, incident command, NIMS, drills, equipment, inspection, post fall rescue, confined space rescue, record keeping, and more. Students learned to:
Lockout / Tagout (LOTO), A to Z  Last year, OSHA most frequently gave citations in manufacturing for violation of LOTO (29CFR1910.147). This standard regulates the servicing and maintenance of equipment in which the unexpected energization or startup of the equipment, or release of stored energy could cause an injury. In this seminar, attendees learned the A to Z on compliance with this regulation through the development and implementation of a practical written LOTO program, LOTO training program (initial and refresher) as well as equipment- specific LOTO procedures for equipment that does not meet the OSHA eight-point exclusion. They also had a hands-on opportunity to test a wide range of LOTO devices.
Students learned to:
