SUMMARY:Nanomaterials in Construction: CPWR Research and Resources
DESCRIPTION:Construction workers are increasingly likely to encounter products that contain engineered nanoparticles\, which are many times smaller than a human hair. Research shows that some nanoparticles—which now appear in insulation\, cement\, paints and coatings\, wood products\, and many other products–pose health hazards\, but the risks they pose depend upon exposure. Join this webinar to learn how nanomaterials are used in construction\, their risks\, and how to be safer with CPWR resources like the Construction Nanomaterials Inventory (eLCOSH Nano)\, training materials like toolbox talks\, and the CPWR Data Center’s new Nanomaterials Data Dashboard. \nPanelists: \n\nGavin West\, MPH\, Director\, Nanomaterials Research\, CPWR\nBruce Lippy\, PhD\, CIH\, CSP\, President\, The Lippy Group\, LLC\, and consultant to CPWR\nWilliam Harris\, MS\, Research Analyst\, Data Center\, CPWR\n\nClick here to register and submit a question in advance. \nThis is a CPWR sponsored webinar.

SUMMARY:Ergonomics: Good for Employees\, Good for Business
DESCRIPTION:What’s the webinar about?\nEvery year work-related musculoskeletal disorders (e.g.\, sprains and strains) make up about 30-35% of workplace injuries and about 35-40% of direct injury costs. Ergonomics has been proven to be a cost-effective way to prevent these injuries and business losses. And yet\, many companies are hesitant to embrace ergonomics because it is often not fully understood and at times politicized. But times are changing. More and more companies are engaging ergonomic programs to gain a competitive advantage by not only reducing injuries and related costs but also by boosting productivity. \nWe will discuss:\n\nThe changing ergonomics regulatory landscape\nWhat ergonomics is all about\nHow ergonomics can be value added to your company\nA 5-step process your company can use to reduce injury risk and increase operational efficiencies\n\nWho should attend?\n\n\n\nEHS Professionals\nOperations/Production Managers\nManufacturing/Process Engineers\nFacilities Managers\nHuman Resources Managers\nAnyone interested in learning more about ergonomics!\n\n\n\nFeel free to invite your colleagues! \nPresenter:\nEd Havey\, M.S\, CPE\, Ergonomics\, ehavey@complianceplace.com \nModerator:\nErin Rymsa\, Director of Training Services\, erymsa@complianceplace.com  \n  \n

SUMMARY:What You Need to Know about the OSHA National Emphasis Program for Fall Protection
DESCRIPTION:OSHA has developed a National Emphasis Program to prevent falls—the leading cause of fatal workplace injuries and the violation the agency cites most frequently during inspections. OSHA can now open inspections whenever they see someone working at height — not just when they observe violations or have other reasons to visit your site. This session will help participants prepare for a potential OSHA visit\, evaluate gaps in your fall protection program\, and provide meaningful recommendations to improve safety. \nClick here to register for this free webinar hosted by OH&S

SUMMARY:The Hunan Side of Safety: Overcome Objections and Address Motivation to Increase Participation
DESCRIPTION:Getting employees more involved in safety requires understanding their motivations. To improve your safety culture\, you need worker buy-in and support. Many safety professionals have wondered\, “How do I increase employee participation?” While there is no simple answer\, employees will participate more if they want to — too often\, they simply choose not to participate. The question should be\, “What would make employees choose to participate more?” If employees and supervisors understand the value and benefits\, they’ll participate more. \nWe Will Share Ideas on Overcoming These Challenges Such As: \n\nShowing employees why safety matters by demonstrating how it impacts them personally.\nDealing with reluctant (often experienced) workers who push back against the rules.\nDealing with those (often younger) workers who think they’re invincible or won’t get hurt.\nTips for increasing participation\, such as identifying workers to be safety advocates and leading from the middle.\nTips for supervisors who must support safety or could undermine your efforts.\n\nAnd much more! \nSponsored by ISHN and J.J Keller Safety Managment Suite \nClick here to Register.

SUMMARY:How to be OSHA Compliant with Turnkey Fall Protection
DESCRIPTION:Overview: \nTo truly protect workers at height\, you need more than just some pieces of equipment. For fall protection solutions to be effective\, every aspect must be considered. Procuring comprehensive and compliant solutions\, however\, can be very schedule and resource intensive. By employing turnkey fall protection solutions – where all required services come from a single\, qualified provider – organizations can confidently select and implement the products\, systems and controls that protect workers and reduce employer liability. Using turnkey services to address fall hazards has proven to deliver more effective solutions and decreased implementation costs. This session outlines the core elements of turnkey fall protection\, its benefits to an organization\, and how to find and evaluate potential providers. \nSpeaker: \nNolan Miller\, PE\, CSP \nServing as a project manager and structural engineer with LJB Engineering\, Mr. Miller has more than 26 years of experience in both traditional structural engineering and safety consulting. With a thorough knowledge of OSHA regulations and safety standards\, he specializes in fall prevention and protection programs and systems. For the past several years\, he has focused on providing fall protection system design and installation services for large organizations across the United States. \nSponsored by Kee Safety\, KPA\, Honeywell \nThere is not coat to attend this webinar.
