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:

Originally published by Department of Industrial Relations: Newsline April 21, 2016 Oakland—The Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) reports the number of Californians who died on the job decreased in 2014. A review of the past ten years indicates that workplace fatalities remain below the average rate of fatalities prior to 2008, when the last recession began. “Every work-related fatality is a tragic reminder that worker deaths are preventable,” said Christine Baker, Director of the Department of Industrial Relations (DIR). “Safe and healthy working conditions and dedication to preventing workplace injuries and illnesses can save workers’ lives.” There were 344 fatal injuries on the job in California in 2014, compared to 396 in 2013 and 375 in 2012. Data comes from the Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries (CFOI) which is conducted annually in conjunction with the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). Figures for 2014 are the latest numbers available. Key findings from the latest census in California include:
The high rate of workplace fatalities for Latinos continues to be an area the department is tracking closely. DIR over the past six years has increased workplace safety outreach and education to Spanish-speaking workers, with a focus on high-hazard work. A table reflecting final data for 2014 for California is posted online. Detailed tables will be posted as soon as available from Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). The preliminary data was posted last September. Changes to the final data result from the identification of new cases and the revision of existing cases based on source documents received after the release of preliminary results. Beginning in 2016, the data will only be released once annually in the month of December.
