Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002C Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.1200(h)(1): Employees were not provided effective information and training on hazardous chemicals in their work area at the time of their initial assignment and whenever a new hazard that the employees had not been previously trained about was introduced into their work area: (a) RFI, LLC at 2145 Alter St., Broomfield, CO: On and around July 12, 2019, the employer did not provide employees with effective information and training on hazardous chemicals in their work area before being potentially exposed to hazardous chemicals. Employees did not know the hazards of the chemicals in their work areas. Employees had not been trained about the use and format of Globally Harmonized System Labels for containers of hazardous chemicals and safety data sheets. Employees, who were not working with hazardous chemicals but could be exposed to hazardous chemicals during accidental chemical release incidents, were not provided training prior to potential exposure to hazardous chemicals but were provided the training later during annual training sessions. This condition potentially exposed employees to chemical hazards. Abatement Note: 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 material safety data sheets.
