CalOSHA – Safety Programs in Word Format
Word format is always welcome – and copyright free word format is even better.
These programs come from CalOSHA so they should easily meet or exceed federal guidelines. Some, like the restaurant stuff, is specific, so very useful.

Miami Surfside Condo History and Collapse
Only posting a link to the Miami Herald – but if you have not seen this chilling analysis, it is worth a read. Everything from missing rebar, design changes, plus the various issues that lead to the collapse and death of 98 people. Animations, plus video show what happened, plus the stories of some of the people inside.
If you are in construction, you should give this a read:

Worried that you are going to be inspected? This nifty sheet from OSHA explains how this sort of thing happens and why.
E-Books From OSHA
Some of these have been posted in he past, but here are all of the current OSHA e-books that are on their website.
Programs will include information on hazard communication, respiratory protection, workplace violence in healthcare, nail salons, trees, ladders. etc.

Thank You Laos!
I had a spike in traffic at 1:00am and was curious as to who it was from. Laos!
ຢູ່ທີ່ປອດໄພແລະສະບາຍດີ!
That is, ‘Stay safe and be well’ in Lao. I used a translator so if it says something else, my bad.
Driver Safety – From Texas(!)
Who knew Texas had some awesome safety training materials. These can be found on the Texas Occupational Safety Page, and of course, here. I will download and post them as I have time.
These programs cover a range of subjects – from driver program checklists, aggressive driving, night blindness, even golf cart safety. Click them all – you never know when you will need them.
