Personal protective equipment (PPE) Devices and apparel worn by employees to prevent or reduce exposure to health and safety hazards in any adverse environment. Examples include respirators, gloves, chemical-resistant overalls, earplugs, and safety glasses. 

Blast resistant design should provide a level of safety for persons in the building that is no less than that for persons outside the building in the event of an explosion. Evidence from past incidents have shown that many of the fatalities and serious injuries were due to collapse of buildings onto the persons inside the building. This objective is to reduce the probability that the building itself becomes a hazard in an explosion.

CFR109-43.307-2.50 4.4.2 Monitoring of Hazardous Chemicals for Radioactive/Chemical Contamination - To prevent inadvertent release of hazardous personal property from the DOE sites by transfer or sale to the public, all hazardous or suspected hazardous property chemicals shall be checked for radioactive or chemical contamination by enviromnental, safety, and health officials. 

The items are those recommended by (a) manufacturers, either in technical bulletins or in Material Safety Data Sheets, (b) the Manufacturing Chemists Association, or (c) the National Safety Coxmcil, for use by personnel while responding to fire or accidental discharge of the chemical. They are intended to protect the lungs, eyes, and skin. There are many plastics and rubber compounding ingredients, as well as the monomers themselves, which are toxic and pose fire and explosion hazards. The user must consult a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for the specific properties and safety hazards associated with the chemicals handled. An MSDS will provide specific recommendations on the required personal protective equipment that should be used when handling a certain chemical.

Steel erectors, just as in the general fall protection standard, can choose the best fall protection system for the job. The standard says protection from fall hazards can be a perimeter safety cable, guardrail, safety net, personal fall arrest, or a fall restraint (positioning device) system. 

A final EHS concern stems from the accumulation of dried-up III-V slurry waste inside the CMP tool caused by splashing during the polishing process. When these solid compounds are disturbed, they could become airborne and form a safety hazard to engineers working inside the tool. Sufficient chemical rinsing should be done and appropriate personal protective equipment should be used to remove the possibility of inhaling these El—V compounds. 

B) Employee members of TSD facility emergency response organizations shall be trained to a level of competence in the recognition of health and safety hazards to protect themselves and other employees. This would include training in the methods used to minimize the risk from safety and health hazards in the safe use of control equipment in the selection and use of appropriate personal protective equipment in the safe operating procedures to be used at the incident scene in the techniques of coordination with other employees to minimize risks in the appropriate response to over exposure from health hazards or injury to themselves and other employees and in the recognition of subsequent symptoms which may result from over exposures. 

If any deficiency in paragraphs (d)(1)(i) through (xiii) of this section (or in additional inspection items required to be checked for specific types of equipment in accordance with other sections of this standard) is identified, an immediate determination must be made by the competent person as to whether the deficiency constitutes a safety hazard. If the deficiency is determined to constitute a safety hazard, the equipment must be taken out of service until it has been corrected. See 1926.1417. 

If any deficiency is identified, an immediate determination must be made by the qualified person as to whether the deficiency constitutes a safety hazard or, though not yet a safety hazard, needs to be monitored in the monthly inspections. 

If the qualified person determines that, though not presently a safety hazard, the deficiency needs to be monitored, the employer must ensure that the deficiency is checked in the monthly inspections. 

After proof testing, a competent person must inspect the platform and rigging to determine if the test has been passed. If any deficiencies are found that pose a safety hazard, the platform and rigging must not be used to hoist personnel unless the deficiencies are corrected, the test is repeated, and a competent person determines that the test has been passed. ( See 1926.1417 for tag-out and related requirements.)...
