It is essential that organizations map their safety plan to regulations in their area. This session will look at some of the key organizations and how to contact them.
A good first safety step is establishing a safety committee. This session will give participants some ideas on getting started.
Hazard identification typically forms the basis for a safety plan. We will look at some ways of identifying hazards and then we will apply those methods to a case study.
Hazard resolution is the logical step to take after hazard identification. We will look at three ways of resolving hazards and then we will apply those methods to a case study.
