Dan: OSHA is going to expect that you have a safety plan with lockout/tagout, blood bourne pathogen control, hazardous material spill remediation procedures, first aid preparedness, emergency flushing, etc. While not required specifically in the co

This was a citation issued during an internal audit. I believe that it was besed solely from company policy. I am hot even sure that grounding is an industry standard although OSHA does have some ducumentation pertaining to grounding of flameable was

I agree, but OSHA is starting to get curious about the high turnover rate we are having and are curious why there has been no complaints. And I just can't tell them that I am killing the operators off before they have a chance to complain.

We'd guess that you want the ESD ground at the same point as the building ground for personnel safety reasons. Injured employees and OSHA inspector should be enough to convice the old timers [in most plants].

We don't do any of this. We had our operators tested by OSHA for lead inhalation using special sniffers during the wave solder process and passed by a magnatudes in limits while operating the machine and removing dross. Our recycling agency doesn't

Dave - well said ScottM - I'm appalled - Your management sounds like a throwback to an early industrial age where the workers were treated as a commodity. It's not right to do only what you're forced to do when protecting human beings and the enviro

At the OSHA training institute, our instructor stuck an electric drill in a bucket of water to demonstrate what proper grounding will do. Personally I wasn't going to try it. All our fluxes are no-clean, and are IPA based. Granted we used aqueous
