Also, many state department of health adopted programs called fatality assessment programs.

The OSHA.gov website has got the weekly fat/cat reports which addresses approximately one fourth of the construction fatalities in the country, according to comments by Richard Fairfax the head of enforcement for OSHA at a conference I attended last week. It's good to see that someone is finding many of the other fatalities that occur, and give a much more in-depth explanation of what happened. This can be a valuable teaching aid a.k.a. toolbox talk for employers to use to address safety issues with real-life stories. Unfortunately we are not born with the correct way to perform our work this has to be learned. A comprehensive safety program is necessary for best practices. There are several places where you can find safety programs. First, you can check with OSHA, or many states who run their own programs, for sample programs you may use or adapt. http://www.safetyplandownloads.com is a great site for safety programs for construction safety programs. http://www.cpwr.org is another good site with lots of information for craftworkers, and of course www.osha.gov 's site as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
