CB104 Intro to Safety and Health Program
An effective occupational safety and health program includes the following four elements:
Management commitment and employee involvement
Worksite analysis Hazard prevention and control Safety and health training
CB104 Intro to Safety and Health Program
These are complementary elements
Management commitment provides motivation and resources
Employee involvement allows workers to develop and express commitment to safety and health
CB104 Intro to Safety and Health Program
Clearly state a worksite safety and health policy
Establish and communicate a clear goal and objective for the safety and health program
Involve top management in implementing the program
CB104 Intro to Safety and Health Program
Encourage employees to get involved in the program and in decisions that affect their safety and health
Communicate responsibility for all program aspects
CB104 Intro to Safety and Health Program
Parties responsible for the safety and health program must have authority and resources
Managers, supervisors, and employees must be held
accountable for meeting their responsibilities
Program operations must be reviewed at least annually, to evaluate, identify deficiencies, and revise, as needed
CB104 Intro to Safety and Health Program
Examine the worksite and identify:
existing hazards
conditions and operations where changes might occur to create hazards
Management must actively analyze the work and the worksite to anticipate and prevent harmful occurrences
CB104 Intro to Safety and Health Program
Conduct a comprehensive baseline survey for safety and health
Job Hazard Analysis
Who may help you:

Photos shown in this presentation may depict situations that are not in compliance with applicable OSHA requirements.
It is not the intent of the content developers to provide compliance-based training in this presentation, the intent is more to address hazard awareness in the construction industry, and to recognize the overlapping hazards present in many construction workplaces.
It should NOT be assumed that the suggestions, comments, or recommendations contained herein constitute a thorough review of the applicable standards, nor should discussion of “issues” or “concerns” be construed as a prioritization of hazards or possible controls. Where opinions (“best practices”) have been expressed, it is important to remember that safety issues in general and construction jobsites specifically will require a great deal of site - or hazard-specificity - a “one size fits all” approach is not recommended, nor will it likely be very effective.
It is assumed that individuals using this presentation, or content, to augment their training programs will be “qualified” to do so, and that said presenters will be otherwise prepared to answer questions, solve problems, and discuss issues with their audiences.
No representation is made as to the thoroughness of the presentation, nor to the exact methods of recommendation to be taken. It is understood that site conditions vary constantly, and that the developers of this content cannot be held responsible for safety problems they did not address or could not anticipate, nor those which have been discussed herein or during physical presentation. It is the responsibility of each employer contractor and their employees to comply with all pertinent rules and regulations in the jurisdiction in which they work. Copies of all OSHA regulations are available form your local OSHA office. This presentation is intended to discuss Federal Regulations only – your individual State requirements may be more stringent.
As a presenter, you should be prepared to discuss all of the potential issues/concerns, or problems inherent in those photos particularly.
