Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 005 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.1200(h)(1): Employers shall provide employees with effective information and training on hazardous chemicals in their work area at the time of their initial assignment, and whenever a new chemical hazard the employees have not previously been trained about is introduced into their work area. Information and training may be designed to cover categories of hazards (e.g., flammability, carcinogenicity) or specific chemicals. Chemical-specific information must always be available through labels and safety data sheets. The employer did not provide hazard communication training for employees performing tasks such as, but not limited to anodizing and painting. Employees handling products, such as, but not limited to sodium hydroxide and phosphoric acid were potentially exposed to eye and skin burns, and respiratory inhalation hazards.
