  • What do the metric system and European pictorial Exit Signs have in common?
    ...neither will likely be used by the United States although they're used by most of the world. In an article by Julia Turner, the US is nearly alone in its use of red-lettered Exit signs, just as we're alone in using miles instead of kilometers. The rest of the world uses the "running man", a pictorial sign showing a man running through a door - in green - the international color meaning "go", and in this case GO NOW! Tuner says, "In most p…
  • Fueling and Static Electricity

    Static electricity, for the most part, is simply annoying. You get a shock when you go to open the file cabinet. You spark when you go to shake hands with someone (It can actually be quite painful when you go to lock lips for a passionate kiss and that static electricity sparks. Ouch!). Static electricity, however, can also be something to pay serious attention to when you are handling fuel. Improperly grounded fuel dispensers can be extremely dangerous.

    For an example of what fuel and

    We have all heard of Spring cleanup…every year around this time we walk around our home or apartment and clean everywhere. Why Spring? maybe because the sun comes out, the snow melts, the green grass appears and everything looks a little cleaner. Or maybe it’s because the sun comes out and the dust becomes
    visual!

    Spring is also a great time to give your facility a safety cleanup/audit. If you’re a safety manager, or someone in charge of your facility’s safety program then now is a goo

  • OSHA Signs Help Make Confined Spaces Safer

    According to OSHA, many workplaces contain spaces that are considered "confined" because their configurations hinder the activities of employees who must enter, work in, and exit them. A confined space has limited or restricted means for entry or exit, and it is not designed for continuous employee occupancy. Confined spaces include, but are not limited to underground vaults, tanks, storage bins, manholes, pits, silos, process vessels, and pipelines.

  • Messages on floors may have greater impact
    As human beings, we're exposed to messages everywhere we go - safety signs at work, billboards on the highway, posters at the grocery store promoting sales - as we get used to seeing them, they become less effective. Most
    messages are at eye-level to get your attention, however, it becomes easier to ignore them or read them without internalizing their main point. As a business owner, safety inspector, or team leader, how do you get your employees to really see the messages you're trying get…

  • Topic Assistance

    One of my pet prives about EHS systems and programs is that I spend alot of my time retrofitting OSHA, building code etc codes/rules after a system has been put in place by the design department.  I am currently enrolled in a MS degree program and am preparing a paper on this problem, is it because there is not enough education in the OSHA requirements in manufacturing?.  I have determined the root cause to be the lack of curiculim or required courses for design engineers at the college level

  • Internships?

    Hello everyone.

     

    I am currently wrapping up a 2nd degree in Safety Science at Indiana University of Pennsylvania.  As part of the degree requirements, I need to complete an internship over the summer.  I have some things in the works right now, but can't afford to rest-easy in my efforts until I have the right opportunity locked down.
