Indiana OSHA Indiana OSHA • Indiana - A state plan state
IOSHA enforce Federal standard 29CFR 1910.All penalties collected go to the state general fund
• Mission: To save lives, prevent injuries and ensure the safety and health of Indiana’s workers.

IOSHA Comprised four divisions:
Industrial Hygiene
Industrial Safety
Construction Safety
Bureau of Mines

Voluntary Protection ProgramVoluntary Protection Program
Indiana VPP is designed to recognize and promote safety and health management programs.
Management, labor, and IDOL establish a cooperative relationship at a workplace that has implemented a strong program.
16
• INSHARP is another recognition program: • incentives and support to smaller, high-hazard
employers • work with their employees to develop, implement and
continuously improve the effectiveness of their workplace safety and health programs
• also includes larger employers who are willing to develop exemplary safety and health programs and mentor others to achieve similar results.

Workers’ and Employers’ Rights and ResponsibilitiesWorkers’ and Employers’ Rights and Responsibilities
18
What are workers’ responsibilities?What are workers’ responsibilities? Read the OSHA poster Follow the employer’s safety and health rules and wear or
use all required gear and equipment Follow safe work practices for your job, as directed by
your employer Report hazardous conditions to a supervisor or safety
committee Report hazardous conditions to OSHA, if employers do
not fix them Cooperate with OSHA inspectors
(see OSHA’s Workers’ web page for more information)
19
What are workers’ rights?What are workers’ rights?• Workers have a vital role to play in identifying and correcting
problems in their workplaces, working with their employers whenever possible
• Workers can complain to OSHA about workplace conditions threatening their health or safety in person, by telephone, by fax, by mail or electronically through OSHA’s web site
• Section 11(c) of the OSH Act gives workers the right to seek safe and healthful conditions on the job without being disciplined or fired
(see OSHA’s Workers’ web page for more information)
20
What are employers’ rightsand responsibilities?What are employers’ rightsand responsibilities?
Employers must provide a safe and healthful workplace free of recognized hazards and follow the OSHA standards
The OSH Act grants employers important rights, particularly during and after an OSHA inspection
Employers also provide training, medical examinations and recordkeeping

Introduction to BBPIntroduction to BBP
Approximately 5.6 million workers are at risk:human immunodeficiency virus (HIV – the virus that causes AIDS)hepatitis B virus (HBV)hepatitis C virus (HCV)
OSHA’s Bloodborne Pathogens standard prescribes safeguards to protect workers against the health hazards from exposure to blood and other potentially infectious materials, and to reduce their risk from this exposure
33
Who is covered by the standardWho is covered by the standard
• All employees who could be “reasonably anticipated” as the result of performing their job duties to face contact with blood and other potentially infectious materials
34
How does exposure occurHow does exposure occur
Most common: needlesticks Cuts from other contaminated sharps (scalpels,
broken glass, sharp metal, etc.) Contact of mucous membranes (for example, the
eye, nose, mouth) or broken (cut or abraded) skin with contaminated blood
