Description
Deadly Dust: Complying with Respirable Crystalline Silica
For managers with safety responsibilities, many things come to mind when the phrase "health hazard" is brought up. Health hazards extend far beyond our traditional ideas. In 2016 OSHA formalized 1910.1053 to regulate employee exposure to this harmful form of dust. A review of the standard and the detail of Best Management Practices for employers will be addressed.
