Albrecht\, Executive EHS Manager for Signature Safety\, LLC for the Midatlantic region. \nInfection Control Risk Assessment (ICRA) plan\, is a set of guidelines and practices that help reduce the risk of infection transmission during construction or renovation projects in healthcare settings . The goal of an ICRA plan is to protect the health of patients\, visitors\, and staff by identifying and controlling the effects of construction or renovation activities on air and water quality. A newer approach is called a Pre-Construction Infection Control Assessment (PICRA) and ICRA 2.0\, both are very similar with some nuances that will briefly be discussed in the body of content. \nThe presentation will discuss the elements of a traditional ICRA plan that involves the regulatory requirements and the following steps: \n\nIdentify risk groups: Determine which patient groups are at risk based on construction activities\nDetermine precautions: Decide on the appropriate class of precautions to take\nEstablish incident reporting: Create a process for reporting any incidents\nAnalyze potential contaminants: Consider every possible source of dust or construction contaminant that could spread through the facility\nImplement controls: Design and put in place measures to reduce health risks\n\nPresenters Bio: Robert Albrecht is a seasoned Occupational Safety and Health professional with over 34 years of experience that includes industrial hygiene\, large civil construction projects\, CSHO for a State OSHA program and over 10 years working in healthcare systems. He is the Executive EHS Manager for Signature Safety\, LLC for the Midatlantic region. During his employment for General Contractors Robert worked on $45 to $900 million projects as Area Safety Manager and Site Safety and Health Officer. \nAfter moving into the healthcare sector while at Johns Hopkins\, his skills were applied for managing all ICRA design\, review and implementing in ambulatory and non-ambulatory healthcare settings. Robert then became the director of Life Safety for the largest hospital in Washington DC and was quickly placed as the acting Assistant Vice President of Support Services. This position included managing all occupational safety and health\, ICRA\, life safety\, hazardous wastes\, environmental services and training for over 4\,000 staff. \nRobert presently holds a Certified Healthcare Environmental Management certification\, an AAS in Occupational Safety and Health Technology from a NIOSH accredited program\, a BS in Legal Studies with a minor in Environmental Occupational Safety and Health from the University of Maryland University College. \n\n \n \n MACSC Monthly Meeting RSVP\n \n \n CommentsThis field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.Will you be attending?(Required)\n \n \n Yes\n \n \n \n No\n Company(Required)Name(Required)\n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n \n Cell Phone NumberEmail(Required)\n \n I will be brining a guest and his or her name(s) is: Guest Fee is $45 per personEmail\n \n Select number of guest.

Unlike NFPA 70E—which focuses on protecting workers from electrical hazards through safe work practices—NFPA 70B is centered on maintaining electrical systems to prevent those hazards from arising in the first place. The two standards are complementary\, and together they form a more complete approach to electrical safety. \nIn this live Q&A-style session\, NFPA electrical safety expert Derek Vigstol returns to help safety managers navigate the practical impact of NFPA 70B. Whether you’re unsure how this standard differs from NFPA 70E\, curious about what counts as a compliant maintenance program\, or looking for guidance on implementation\, this webinar is your opportunity to ask questions and get clear\, actionable answers. \nRegister for this free webinar! \nDATE: Tuesday\, August 19\, 2025\nTIME: 2:00pm ET \nThis free webinar is being hosted by Occupational Health & Safety and not by a MACSC member \nMore info and registration  URL:https://macsc.org/event/executive-qa-understanding-nfpa-70b-and-its-impact-on-electrical-maintenance-safety/ LOCATION:Webinar CATEGORIES:Training END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250828T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20250828T120000 DTSTAMP:20260403T145109 CREATED:20250825T200301Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250825T200301Z UID:7340-1756378800-1756382400@macsc.org SUMMARY:IPAF NA Webinar: Safe Use Planning Under Pressure: How Strong Training and Planning Prevent Workplace Failures DESCRIPTION:Presented by Tony Groat.

Between 2011 and 2023\, there was an average of 150 workplace electrical fatalities every year. Over 48% of these electrical fatalities are caused by overhead power line contact. \nElectrical power installers and repairers\, an occupation that makes up many of the line workers in the utility industry\, had the highest rate of electrical fatalities during this period. This webinar will discuss the commonalities of workplace electrical incidents along with what steps workers and employers may take to prevent these fatalities with an emphasis placed on utility workers. \nFEATURED SPEAKERS \nJennifer LeFevre\,\nExecutive Director\,\nElectrical Safety Foundation International\nJennifer LeFevre is the executive director of the Electrical Safety Foundation International (ESFI)\, guiding the Foundation’s mission to reduce electrical deaths\, injuries\, and fires through public education and outreach.
