Product Description: In August of 1994, OSHA issued 29 CFR 1910.1101, "Occupational Exposure to Asbestos." This regulation requires that all employees who could come into contact with materials that might contain asbestos be given appropriate training on working safely in these situations.
Because many materials commonly used in buildings for many years (including ceiling tiles, vinyl flooring, and wall and pipe insulation) contain asbestos, this means that the regulation applies to virtually every custodial, janitorial and maintenance worker in the country.
This Regulatory Compliance Kit "Asbestos Awareness" has been created specifically to educate employees about the dangers of working with materials that may contain asbestos.
The posters in the kit remind employees to be on the lookout for materials they may encounter that could contain asbestos. The videotape and employee booklets include information on:
● Hazards of Asbestos.
● OSHA's Asbestos Standard.
● Composition and Nature of Asbestos.
● Types of Materials That May Contain Asbestos, and Where They Are Encountered.
● Limiting Exposure to Asbestos.
● How to Protect Yourself When Disturbing a Material That May Contain Asbestos.
● Air Monitoring and Decontamination.
The videotape program in the kit comes with a comprehensive leader's guide, reproducible scheduling & attendance form, employee quiz, training certificate and training log.
Available in English and Spanish (videos, posters and booklets; Presenter's Guide in English only).
Videotape Program Length: 14 Minutes
