Appleton, WI.
Gerry Janssen Vice President in charge of sales and marketing at Safetyinstruction.com has announced the addition of their “Combustible Dust” Safety Training Program to their comprehensive suite of products. These products enable companies of all sizes to achieve OSHA compliance with Federal regulation 29 CFR 1903.1
He further explains that combustible dust is fine particles, for example sugar, flour, sawdust, paper and coal dust. They present an explosion hazard while suspended in air when certain conditions are present. A dust explosion can be catastrophic, causing death, injuries, and destruction of entire buildings. In many combustible dust accidents employees, and employers were unaware that a hazard even existed.
The Combustible Dust training program provides company employees with an overview of the hazards associated with combustible dust generation in work operations and site processes. It provides the necessary framework to conduct combustible dust hazard training. Since every company must address their site-specific operational requirements, site instructors will provide the necessary information needed to address their specific industry requirements. Their judgment will be used in adding or editing site-specific information pertinent to safety operations.
The Combustible Dust training program introduces the hazards associated with combustible dust and addresses the applicable safety regulations. It discusses where combustible dust can occur in the workplace, the mechanics of fire, and combustible dust explosions, and hazard assessment requirements. Training also details hazard recognition and control skills, methods of compliance with combustible dust safety. It also addresses engineering controls needed to control hazards, along with discussing actions to take in an emergency situation, and providing tips for using contractors on site.
