WHAT'S NEW AT THE "SAFETY DOCTOR?"
Hi friends and
colleagues,
Hope your safety programs have had a positive start in 2004. As we enter the
month of March, we're gearing up for several national observances related to
safety. They include: Workplace Eye Safety Month, and Save Your Vision
Month. Read more about these observances below.
In addition to making
preparations for the national observances, I'm working with a local client in Orlando to implement their plan for working safely in confined
spaces. If you visit TheSafetyDoctor.com, you'll find many safety products
on the topic of
Confined Space Entry which address the major areas of employee training
required by regulation.

all safety training products.
Finally, I've successfully restructured many of my keynote safety speeches
to place more emphasis on valuable knowledge pertaining to the safety
worker. Click
here to browse my new safety topics. To book a keynote speaking
engagement, contact me at (407) 291-1209.
Hope you enjoy the
newsletter!

New Security
Requirements announced by Department of Transportation
In an effort to fight terrorism and improve the security of hazardous
materials being shipped, the Department of Transportation has added
three major security requirements to their HAZMAT regulations. Companies
that handle hazardous materials must develop a "Security Plan", and give
their employees "Security Awareness" and "In-Depth Security" training.
|
These training
materials are now available at TheSafetyDoctor.com:
DOT Hazmat Security
Awareness
Regulatory Compliance Kit ... was created to help employers provide their
employees with the security awareness portion of the DOT training.
DOT In-Depth
Security Training

with transporting hazardous materials and gives them an understanding of
their facility's HAZMAT Security Plan. The kit contains a "HAZMAT
Transportation Security Manual" which explains the DOT's security
requirements and provides a "fill-in-the-blank" HAZMAT Security Plan.

Protect Your Eyes
While Working
Every year, approximately 100,000 workers suffer serious eye injuries. Of
these injuries, 9 out of 10 could have been avoided by following safety
procedures and wearing appropriate eye protection. The Bureau of Labor
Statistics reported 3 out of 5 workers who sustained an eye injury wore no
protection. Of those workers who were wearing eye protection, 40% were
wearing the wrong eye protection. As a result, the cost of eye injuries to
industry is over $330,000,000 annually.
Wearing proper eye protection is a matter of vital importance to worker
health and safety because some industries such as construction and
automotive repair can be hazardous to your vision.
