Detailed technical material for greater understanding of various safety topics
Effective safety programs rely on understanding the complete and complex basis for safety rules and programs. Managers, supervisors and employees cannot be expected to follow rules and procedures unless they have been trained to specific level of understanding as to why rules and procedures have been implemented in their workplace.
OSHA, professional and trade organizations have developed code specific technical requirements for both equipment design and operational needs to ensure safety operations.
Technical and codes are developed by organizations such as NEC, AHI and ANSI and other professional engineering and professional group authorities. These technical requirements are incorporated by reference into OSHA and State Safety Standards for the workplace.
