What is the cheapest way to do training / safety training for workers that follows all OSHA regulations? We have a facility of about 250 employees including 200 operators. The machines are mostly automated and we manufacture Bin Storage Racks. Trying to decide if we should pay for OSHA training or is there a cheaper alternative / anything that has worked for someone else? Open to all suggestions. We’ve looked into creating our own training, outsourcing training modules, OSHA Training, and a few other options but are trying to cut costs. We have one EHS officer who could possibly implement training depending on the time requirement. Thanks!

I I have two years experience as an EHS professional, and I am pursuing my masters in Safety Managament. My undergrad is in biology. What are the chances that I get an interview with OSHA as a safety specialist based on my experience/education? I know the pay is going to be lower than right now. What should I expect out of the first year there?

edit: can't spell

I'm designing a charcoal scrubber for my little mad scientist lab. Wondering how I can monitor it's effectiveness? Bonus if it picks up air pollution from the adjacent busy arterial that my place fronts on.

Thinking about a standalone device, or maybe Arduino set up with sensors at intake and outlet of scrubber, so if anyone has good experience monitoring air quality on a budget that way I'd love to hear about it(I have no arduino experience yet...just a starter kit) .

In EU, it seems to be a common-place signal to trigger the internal speed-limiting function of a forklift with a simple relay signal without having to go through CANbus. So if there is a pedestrian approaching, the sensor detects, sends a signal and the forklift slows down automatically.

​

Does anyone have footage/experience or technical writing with implementing something like this?

Thanks.

Morning Fellas of the interwebs,

Currently I'm attempting to do a training material for my department, regarding Eye Safety (using work/industrial rated glasses/googles) because most of them are running on-site only with sunglasses or reading glasses (eventhough the company provides allowance on safety glasses).

So I wanted to request you fine Ladies and Gentlemen of the internet, if you guys have pictures of accidents happening due to lack of wearing safety glasses, and if you are cool with sharing them in order to use them, the idea is to add some "graphic" material as most of the staff have a mentality of "it does not happen", "it only happens in training materials", "it won't happen to me", etc., so I wish to show some graphic (border with R-rated) in order for them to understand that not having an accident while not using the proper eye PPE is just luck and not something that anyone will be exempt of having anytime in the future.

Thanks in advance for your replies c:

PS

I'm avoiding the NSFW Flair as technically it would be used to make plant operations safer.

I'm in the middle of compiling the best Industrial Safety and Toolbox Talk resources I can find. I already have almost 200 power points, pdfs and articles. But I can take it only so far and want your input.

What great resources do you use?

What's your go to safety presentation or material?
