Description:
As the Safety Officer for your facility, it's important to recognize your OSHA responsibilities. On June 1, 2015, employers must have completed the revised Hazard Communication Standards at their facility. This includes all healthcare facilities no matter your size. You'll learn what those are and what actions you'll need to take.
This session will outline your requirement per the federal guidelines and assist you with implementation using the following handout:
- NIOSH Nine Steps to Avoiding Needlesticks
- HBV Vaccine Declination Form
- CDC Hepatitis B Guidelines
- Equipment Evaluation Forms
- PPE Requirement List
- New Employee OSHA Orientation Checklist
- Annual Facility Review Checklist
Managing and monitoring activities at your healthcare facility can be simplified by knowing what the rules are. Remember compliance is not an option! This one-hour session includes one contact hour of continuing education upon completion.
