Summary
Longstanding OSHA rules on qualified electrical workers set strict standards on who can be around live circuits, and every level of management in a facility must be aware of rules and take responsibility for keeping workers safe.
From plant managers to safety leaders to the workers themselves, companies can take specific steps throughout their operations to ensure safety and OSHA compliance. Many workers are unaware of the potential electrical hazards present in their work environment, which makes them more vulnerable to injury or death.
In this webinar, we'll discuss each person's role in building and maintaining a culture of electrical safety that will keep safety inspectors happy while showing workers that your organization is dedicated to their health and safety.
