The general concensus of the group concerning notification of employees when they were overexposed was to give them written notification, a copy of which they would initial/sign and we would file. 4. Discussion about which standard - Engineering or OSEA - to follow was held and the position was advanced that in health matters we should follow OSHA. Our existing guideline gives this direction "It is the policy of Textile Fibers Department to comply with OSHA regulation section 1910.93a* and where good industrial hygiene practice and/or personnel relations indicate to go beyond legal requirement. There guidelines were issued in 1974 and this was the number of the standard at that time. It has since been changed to 1910.1000. DUP 0904204
