Very well presented. change of speakers Certainly does a more effective job than a constant * I think we get too far off the track when team exercises are used, and much more information can be passed on by more direct methods. Overall, very good. If the session is to be given in one day, consider eliminating some of the workbook exercises. These could be done outside. If possible work in a little more group participation - not essential, but might help. 9 The topics covered by the speaker should be shown in outline on a separate screen. Mo. I think the video/slide presentation was very good. the program moving rapidly, but not too rapidly. Using both kept * Well presented (5 comments) Try to cut down on time spent on Big Ten Health Hazards. Give more detailed information about asbestos and silica and what we intend to do to correct existing conditions (sandblasting, asbestos blankets, etc.) 9 Meed more time for discussion between chapters, 0 More in-depth discussion. 0 More discussion would be helpful, especially in the industrial hygiene area. 2. Added considerably to the program. a Focuses attention where it lies. 0 Brings the message home Excellent idea and recognizable situations and places drove home the fact that we do have problems - even with our emphasis on safety. Focuses attention on application to our areas. Much better than on previous seminar. 0 Certainly more - not less. Some points seem best made by slides alone. Good approach SAL OOOC2C937 Should not stress individual identification with slides in front of group. Try to get slides with specific items to fit 25 most cited items by OSHA. Taught me to be more observant. Three of the problems were essentially identical. might be more useful. Different questions Helped recognize and try to solve problems. Our exercise was more useful in helping me think about and understand our safety program in general. I realize how good a program we have relative to a probable industry average. Organized effort necessary for compliance. The thing not covered was what time frame do we have to make corrections, i.e., what priority is needed or what manpower do we need and when to get corrections made in timely fashion. Give out some material to be read before attending seminar. Gave me more insight about OSHA. Need more of this. Did not go to Supervising for Excellence (3 comments) Came in handy- Yes, team work of problems. Agree, however, in this type of program I personally think more informa tion and less participation is attractive even considering the involvement and interest angles. Practice more than confidence. Define problems. Not enough time to classify. Right to the point. Good exercise. Hard to decide how others evaluated. Probably not as effective as it could have been. housekeeping disproportionately stressed. Fire extinguishers and More time would have revealed more things. ?r SAL QC002C933 7. Knew his subject matter well. Kis expertise was respected and helpful. * Excellent instructor. Background and experience. * He is an asset to the program and should be used for the complete course if continued. 8. * More details application. * Was unfamiliar with scope of act. 0 Give guides on specific OSHA regulations for use in meetings with wage people Yes, I did lack the proper information. 9. Excellent More to the point. Very good subject. 9 Seminar #1 was above average also. Average compared to the other programs which were very good. * Better preparation. 10. 9 Move program to better location. 0 It may be beneficial to the participants to indicate the growth of safety personnel in numbers and time frame since 1965 (Co. split) to indicate the priority on safety to give confidence to people that safety work will be done. More. 9 Very good. May need to lengthen to 2 days. 0 Session should be 2 days long to allow full discussion. Some questions I wanted to ask were not asked because of the rush to get to the next topic. 9 Better chair and seating arrangements. it can be seen. Also, raise the TV screen to where Very good. t SAL 000020939  Better definition for types of accidents - serious, non-serious, DeMinimis, etc. c Very appropriate. Strongly suggest that the atmosphere in the breathing zone of workers be explained and suitable warnings be given. Almost all vapors in chemical plant environment are toxic at high levels. * Prepared me to observe more closely the potential safety hazards we work around every day. * By use of video tape one could see and better understand problems. were also very helpful. Slides * Strongly believe all plant supervision should attend. Should be presented to all supervisors and some modification should be available to wage earners. The tape presentations were not boring and the accompanying exercises broke the monotony. Enjoyed the class.

Also excluded are those employees who are covered by similar governmental programs already in effect such as the Federal Coal Mine Act and the Atomic Energy Act. b. OSHA lists two employer responsibilities: - To furnish each of his employees working conditions that are free from recognized safety and health hazards that are causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm. - To comply with the specific safety and health standards which have been made law. The first responsibility as given above is frequently referred to as the ________________________________________ Clause. -1- SAL 000020944 5. OSHA requires that a citation be issued to either the employer-, the employee, or both the employer and employee for violations of the Act depending upon who is at fault. ________ T F. 6. OSHA will permit individual states to develop and administer their own safety and health standards and to establish their own inspection force as long as the state's program is as effective as OSHA's - True .

Name six of the eight factors pointed out in this segment which are required for a good scaffold. a. __. b. c . ____________________________________________________________ d. e. f. (2) 25. The horses for a light duty scaffold (25#/Sq. Ft.) should be no more than feet apart. For a medium scaffold (50#/Sq. Ft.) they should be no farther thanfeet apart. 26. OSHA adopted the entire National Electrical Code, NFPA 70-1971 and made it applicable to all new installations and .every major revamp made after March 15, 1972. ________ T ________ F 27. Electrical classification of unit areas, building, shops, etc., are made in order to assure that electrical equipment purchased for or used in tne area will not cause a fire or explosion. ________ T _____ F (3) 28. The first thing which an electrical engineer must establish when classifying an area is the type of combustible or flammable material in the atmosphere. For the three classes given below select the correct answers from the column on the right and put the appropriate letter in the blank. Class I Class II a. Combustible dusts of coal, coke. metals, etc. b. Coal, coke, wood chips, paper Class III c. Hydrocarbon vapors and gases d . Lint or flyings from cloth. 29. An area which would normally contain an air/vapor mixture which was in its flammable range would be classed as (Division I/Division II)? SAL 000020948 30. In simple terms define -what is meant by an unclassified or general purpose area ciassificatjon. 31. Most areas on a typical Refinery or Chemical plant operating unit would normally have what area classification? 32. Electrical equipment, battery powered instruments, electric tools purchased for use in Unclassified Areas should not be used in or areas without a hot work permit or modification of the equipment or special approval by the safety department. 33. Low voltage, battery powered instruments, tools or communication equipment do not have sufficient energy to "set off" a fire or explosion. ________T F 3^. Intrinsically safe on the label of a piece of electrical equipment means in simple terms 35- Mercury vapor light fixtures can be interchanged for incandescent light fixtures because a mercury vapor light will operate cooler than an incandescent light of the same wattage. ________ T F 36. Since explosion proof housings are designed with a U to 1 safety factor up to 25$ of the cover bolts or 25$ of the effective thread area can be left out or disengaged with no real loss of effectiveness. ________T F 37- The general rule is that all conduit entering an explosion proof housing should have a sealed fitting. ________ T F 38. A simple rule to remember is that electrical equipment which could become energized if there were an insulation failure should be grounded if it can be contacted by an employee who would be part of the path to ground. _______ T F -6- SAL OOOC20949 39. OSHA requires the use of grounded extension cords. _______T F UO. OSHA requires that switches, circuit breakers, or other disconnects for a motor, electrical feeder or other electrical equipment be legibly marked. TF 1+1. Electrical equipment or motor driven equipment should be shut down and __________before mechanical work is done on it. 12. The minimum safe distance that a crane or its load should be from exposed power lines is feet. Even greater distances are required where the line voltage exceeds 50,000 volts. E3 A simple but important rule to remember is: only employees should do skilled electrical work. 14. There are more OSHA citations issued for machine guarding violations than any other category of violations. ________ T F 15. More of the OSHA citations involving machine guarding are classed as (de minimis/non-serious/serious/imminent danger) than in any other category of violations. (2) 16. OSHA requires that "points of operation" and "in-going nip points" be guarded. (a) Only enclosure guards are acceptable by OSHA for guarding points of operation. ________T F (b) The most common type of guard used to protect against in-going nip points is the enclosure guard. _________ T F (2) IT. From the standpoint of machine guarding, a supervisor has a two-fold responsibility. These are: (a) (b) -7 - SAL ocoozn?co Ii8. The main reasons for requiring compressed gas cylinders to tie secured and stored in a vertical position are: l) its valve is less likely to be broken off. 2) If it is broken, the thrust would be downward and the cylinder would be less likely to act like a missile and 3) cylinders have a safety relief device in the valve assembly - in the vertical position it would release gas rather than a liquid which would vaporize into a much larger volume of gas. ______T ___ F. I9. Compressed air used for cleaning purposes must be less than PSI at the nozzle. 50. As a supervisor you are a key man in making certain we are in compliance with OSHA. If an OSHA Compliance Officer sees an employee violating the OSHA Act, for instance, by not using a guard on a table saw or by using an air hose for cleaning with line pressure on it, or by not wearing safety glasses or by handling a compressed gas cylinder with an electro-magnet, the company gets the citation rather than the employee. ______ T ______ F. (9) 51. As a supervisor your eyesight, your hearing, your sense of smell and your can be important tools in detecting possible industrial hygiene problems. 52. An example of one troublemaker is given below. Name the other nine you were told about in this segment. (a) HEAT AND COLD (f) (b) (g) (c) (h) (a) (i) (e) (j ) 53. All of the troublemakers except noise are contacted either by breathing them, by absorbing them through the skin or by ingesting them along with something we eat, drink or smoke. ______T _______ F. 5U. The most frequent means by which employees in a Refinery or Chemical Plant are exposed to toxic materials is by absorption/breathing/ingestion. -8- SAL C0002C951 * (2) 55- Normally the skin acts as a harrier to protect your internal organs from hanafu] substances; however, some materials used in refining operations can pass directly through the skin and be absorbed into the body. Name two of these discussed in the Workbook exercise. (b) 56. The possibility of ___materials in the atmosphere must be considered when selecting a location for employees to eat or prepare food. 57- Of the list of peculiarities associated with industrial diseases (slow to develop, latent or dormant, similar symptoms, plain hard to recognise, irreversible) the moso significant is that industrial diseases are irreversible. ________ T F 58. As a supervisor you should do everything you can to employees from getting occupational diseases in the first place. 59. The Occupational Safety and Health Act makes it the employer's responsibility to inform his employees of toxic materials or hazardous conditions in the employee's work area. The supervisor has a responsibility to see that this is done. ________ I F (9) 60. List the "Big Ten Bad Actors" plus any additional ones your instructor told you about which are unique to your plant. (a) (b) (c) (a) (e) Others (f) Cfi) (h) (i) (i) 6l. A good rule of thumb is that if you can see dust particles in the air from asbestos bearing materials you most likely are exceeding the TLV and protective equipment should be worn until an exact determination of the asbestos fiber level can be made. ________ T F -9- SAL 0CQC2C952 62. The typical symptoms of lead poisoning are gastro-intestinal disorders, anemia, weakness and even. 63. When cadmium welding and brazing rods are used or cadmium plated bolts and nuts are "cut" with a burning torch, the vapors given off are toxic enough to kill you in a short period of time unless proper precautions are taken. ________ TF (2) 6U. A simple test for cadmium plated materials is to gently heat a spot the size of a nickel with a burning torch. On cadmium plated materials the spot will form, a film while cooling while zinc coated materials will turn a color. Limit the test to a few seconds to prevent over-exposure to cadmium fumes. 65- Exposure to excessive levels of benzene can affect the bone marrow resulting in anemia or absence of certain types of blood cells. The condition is irreversible. ________ T F 66. Everyone knows that being sprayed or splashed with sulfuric acid can cause extremely painful chemical burns'or loss of eyesight. Chronic exposure to sulfuric acid mist above the accepted working level can cause continuous irritation of the throat, sinuses and eyes as well as a chronic cough. _________ T F 67. Phenol is highly toxic by way of ingestion, by inhaling and by through the skin. 68. Another name for phenol is acid. 69. Only process streams which have a high percentage of phenol are a safety problem. ________ T F 70. Many employees do not realize that a phenol accident can cause death unless proper steps are taken immediately. ________T F 71. Hydrogen sulfide has a characteristic odor of at very low concentrations. (l/10th part per million) - 10 - ; SAL 000020953 72. The ability to smell hydrogen sulfide's characteristic odor is lost at levels above 100 PPM. This can easily mislead an employee into thinking he is out of danger when actually the concentration could be increasing. TF 73. _____________is a greenish, yellow gas with a pungent suffocating odor. It can cause severe damage to the lungs and eyes at concentrations as low as a few hundred parts per million. 7^.___________________________________________________ is a colorless, odorless gas formed from the incomplete combustion of carbonaceous materials such as hydrocarbons, wood, and coal. 75. Symptoms of poisoning from the above mentioned gas (#7k) are headache, nausea, drowsiness and eventual loss of consciousness. ________T F 76. Extremely loud noises or a high noise level over an extended period of time can result in permanent. (2) 77. Early symptoms of exposure to excessive noise levels are or 78. Ear protection should be worn or time of exposure should be limited to the periods specified by OSHA where noise level exceeds 90 decibels (commonly referred to as 90dBA). ________ T F 79.

Also excluded are those employees who are covered by similar governmental programs already in effect such as the Federal Coal Mine Act and the Atomic Energy Act. U. OSHA lists two employer responsibilities: - To furnish each of his employees working conditions that are free from recognized safety and health hazards that are causing cr likely to cause death or serious physical harm. - To comply with the specific safety and health standards which have been made law. The first responsibility as given above is frequently referred to as the Clause. -1- SAL 0C2C961 5. OSHA requires that a citation be issued to either the employer",* the employee, or both the employer and employee for violations of the Act depending upon who i s at fault. ________ T F. 6. OSHA will permit individual states to develop and administer their own safety and health standards and to establish their own inspection force as long as the state's program is as effective as OSHA's - True . False (2) 7. The initial safety standards made into law by OSHA were primarily adopted from two national standards organisations. Name these organizations. b._____________________________________________________________________________ (1) 8. OSHA has established a priority system to decide which businesses to inspect. The factors considered are listed below but not in order of importance. Arrange the factors in order of decreasing importance by placing the appropriate number to the left of the factor with 1 being the most important. ________ Target Industry - Those industries with poor accident and health records such as lumber and wood products, roofing and sheet metal, mobile home manufacturing, longshoring, industries with high and repeated exposure to harmful materials such as asbestos, cotton dust, silica, lead, carbon monoxide. ________ Random selection ________ An accident or industrial disease which involved a fatality or requires the hospitalization of 5 or more persons. ________ Employee complaint of an OSHA violation. 2 SAL 0C0C2C962 9- OSHA permits an employee who has submitted a complaint of an OSHA violation to have his name withheld from the employer. Further the law protects an employee submitting a complaint from any act of reprisal due to his submitting a complaint. True. False . (2) 10. The OSHA Compliance Officer will normally have two representatives accompany him when he makes his inspection. Who do these individuals represent?_____________________________________________________ (1+) 11. Under imminent danger conditions an OSHA Compliance Officer will do the following: True False a. ________ b. ________ ________ ________ Notify the employer of.the conditions and attempt to convince him to move his employees until the problem is corrected. Order the employer to shut down the operation and remove his employees until the danger is eliminated. c. ________ ________ Notify the employees of the charges and order them to clear the above site until the danger is eliminated d. ________ ________ Notify his Area Director of the condition and if the Area Director agrees, the Area Director will request the U. S. District Court having jurisdiction to issue a restraining order shutting down the equipment or condition which created the problem. 12. A citation for a violation of OSHA must be posted at the location where the violation exists for a period of three days or until the violation is eliminated whichever is shorter. ________ T ________ F (3") OSHA Compliance Officers concentrate on violations of standards involving poor housekeeping, open-sided floors, and stairway handrails because: a. T b. T F Violations of these standards lead to falls which can seriously injure employees. F These violations are easy to spot. c. T F The President made these areas target areas in his speech announcing the new law. -3 - SAL 000020963 l4. Good, housekeeping is an important part of both Process and Mechanical's job if a safe workplace is to be maintained. ________ T F 15. Fixed ladders which are over 20' in height do not require the entrance to be protected if the ladder is equipped with a cage. ________ T F (2) ^6- Temporary floor openings should be protected by either a or . 1T. Open-sided floors, platforms and runways require standard handrails if they are feet or more above grade or other working surface. 18. are required for stairs with 4 or more risers . (3) 19.

Shoring or sloping of trenches and excavations will normally be required if the excavation is or more feet deep. (2) 22. A ladder or equivalent safe access is required if the trench or excavation is feet or more deep. This should be no more than feet from the people working in the excavation. 28, Excavated material or other materials, like piping, boards, etc., should be placed no closer than feet from the edge of the excavation if people will be working within the excavation. ^4- SM- 00002096^ --'vr- (6) 2k. The basis for the scaffold standard is that it is important to provide the employee with a good surface to work from. If.the work can't be reached from the ground or some other solid surface, a sturdy ladder or good scaffold should be provided. Name six of the eight factors pointed out in this segment which are required for a good scaffold. a. b. c. d. e. f. (2) 25. The horses for a light duty scaffold (25#/Sq. Ft.) should be no more than feet apart. For a medium scaffold (50#/Sq. Ft.) they should be no farther thanfeet apart. 26. OSHA adopted the entire National Electrical Code, NFPA 70-1971 and made it applicable to all new installations and .every major revamp made after March 15, 1972. ________ T ________ F 27. Electrical classification of unit areas, building, shops, etc., are made in order to assure that electrical equipment purchased for or used in the area will not cause a fire or explosion. ________ T F (3) 28. The first thing which an electrical engineer must establish when classifying an area is the type of combustible or flammable material in the atmosphere. For the three classes given below select the correct answers from the column on the right and put the appropriate letter in the blank. Class I Class II a. Combustible dusts of coal, coke. metals, etc. b. Coal, coke, wood chips, paper Class III c. Hydrocarbon vapors and gases d . Lint or flyings from cloth. 29- An area which would normally contain an air/vapor mixture which was in its flammable range would be classed as (Division I/Division II)? -5 - SAL CCCC2C965 30. In simple terms define what is meant by an unclassified or general purpose area classification. 31. Most areas on a typical Refinery or Chemical plant operating unit would normally have what area classification? (2) 32. Electrical equipment, battery powered instruments, electric tools purchased for use in Unclassified Areas should not be used in or areas without a hot work permit or modification of the equipment or special approval by the safety department. 33. Low voltage, battery powered instruments, tools or communication equipment do not have sufficient energy to "set off" a fire or explosion. ________T F 3^. Intrinsically safe on the label of a. piece of electrical equipment means in simple terms____________________________________________________________________________ 35* Mercury vapor light fixtures can be interchanged for incandescent light fixtures because a mercury vapor light will operate cooler than an incandescent light of the same wattage. ________T F 36. Since explosion proof housings are designed with a It to 1 safety factor up to 25$ of the cover bolts or 25$ of the effective thread area can be left out or disengaged with no real loss of effectiveness. ________T F 37 - The general rule is that all conduit entering an explosion proof housing should have a sealed fitting. ________ T F 38. A simple rule to remember is that electrical equipment which could become energized if there were an insulation failure should be grounded if it can be contacted by an employee who would be part of the path to ground. _____ T F -6- SAL CC 0020 9 6 6 39- OSHA requires the use of grounded extension cords T UO. OSHA requires that switches, circuit breakers, or other disconnects for a motor, electrical feeder or other electrical equipment he legiblymarked. ________ T F 1+1. Electrical equipment or motor driven equipment should be shut down and before mechanical work is done on it. 1+2. The minimum safe distance that a crane or its load should be from exposed power lines is________________ feet. Even greater distances are required where the line voltage exceeds 50,000 volts. 1+3. A simple but important rule to remember is: only employees should do skilled electrical work. 1+1+. There are more OSHA citations issued for machine guarding violations than any other category of violations. ______ T F 1+5. More of the OSHA citations involving machine guarding are .classed as (de minimis/non-serious/serious/imminent danger) than in any other category of violations. .2) 1+6. OSHA requires that "points of operation" and "in-going nip points" be guarded. (a) Only enclosure guards are acceptable by OSHA for guarding points of operation. ________ T F (b) The most common type of guard used to protect against in-going nip points is the enclosure guard. ________T F 1+7- From the standpoint of machine guarding, a supervisor has a two-fold responsibility. These are: (a)________________ (b) -7 - SAL GC002C967 U8. The main reasons for requiring compressed gas cylinders to be secured and stored in a vertical position are: l) its valve is less likely to be broken off* 2) If it is broken, the thrust would be downward and the cylinder would be less likely to act like a missile and 3) cylinders have a safety relief device in the valve assembly - in the vertical position it would release gas rather than a liquid which would vaporize into a much larger volume of gas. ______ T ______ F. 1+9 Compressed air used for cleaning purposes must be less than PSI at the nozzle. 50. As a supervisor you are a key man in making certain ve are in compliance with OSHA. If an OSHA Compliance Officer sees an employee violating the OSHA Act, for instance, by not using a guard on a table saw or by using an air hose for cleaning with line pressure on it, or by not wearing safety glasses or by handling a compressed gas cylinder with an electro-magnet, the company gets the citation rather than the employee. ______ T ______ F- (9) 51. 52. As a supervisor your eyesight, your hearing, your sense of smell and your can be important tools in detecting possible industrial hygiene problems. An example of one troublemaker is given below. Name the other nine you were told about in this segment. (a) HEAT AND COLD (f) (b) (g) (c) (h) (d) (e) fi) (J) 53. All of the troublemakers except noise are contacted either by breathing them, by absorbing them through the skin or by ingesting them along with something we eat, drink or smoke.______T F. 5^. The most frequent means by which employees in a Refinery or Chemical Plant are exposed to toxic materials is by absorption/breathing/ingestion. SAL 00G02G963 (2) 55- Normally the skin acts as a barrier to protect your internal organs from harmful substances; however, some materials used in refining ox^erations can pass directly through the skin and be absorbed, into the body. Name two of these discussed in the Workbook exercise. (a)_______________________________________________________ (b_)_____ 56. The possibility of _____________________ materials in the atmosphere must be considered when selecting a location for employees to eat or prepare food. 57- Of the list of peculiarities associated with industrial diseases (slow to develop, latent or dormant, similar symptoms, plain hard to recognize, irreversible) the most significant is that industrial diseases are irreversible. ________ T F 58. As a supervisor you should do everything you can to employees from getting occupational diseases in the first place. 59. The Occupational Safety and Health Act makes it the employer's responsibility to inform his employees of toxic materials or hazardous conditions in the employee's work area. The supervisor has a responsibility to see that this is done. ________ I F (9) 60.

A good rule of thumb is that if you can see dust particles in the air from asbestos bearing materials you most likely are exceeding the TLV and protective equipment should be worn until an exact determination of the asbestos fiber level can be made. ________ T F -9 - 0C0020969 SM- 62. The typical symptoms of lead poisoning are gastro-intestinal disorders, anemia, weakness and even 63- When cadmium welding and "brazing rods are used or cadmium plated bolts and nuts are "cut" with a burning torch, the vapors given off are toxic enough to kill you in a short period of time unless proper precautions are taken. ________ T F (2) 61. A simple test for cadmium plated materials is to gently heat a spot the size of a nickel with a burning torch. On cadmium plated materials the spot will form, a film while cooling while zinc coated materials will turn a _____________ color. Limit the test to a few seconds to prevent over-exposure to cadmium fumes. 65. 66. Exposure to excessive levels of benzene can affect the bone marrow resulting in anemia or absence of certain types of blood cells. The condition is irreversible. ________T F Everyone knows that being sprayed or splashed with sulfuric acid can cause extremely painful chemical burns or loss of eyesight. Chronic exposure to sulfuric acid mist above the accepted working level can cause continuous irritation of the throat, sinuses and eyes as well as a chronic cough. __________ T F 67 - 68. Phenol is highly toxic by way of ingestion, by inhaling and by through the skin. Another name for phenol is acid. 69- Only process streams which have a high percentage of phenol are a safety problem, ________ T F 70. Many employees do not realize that a phenol accident can cause death unless proper steps are taken immediately. ________ T F 71. Hydrogen sulfide has a characteristic odor of at very low concentrations. (l/10th part per million) - 10 0C0020970 72. The ability to smell hydrogen sulfide's characteristic odor is lost at levels above 100 PPM. This can easily mislead an employee into thinking he is out of danger when actually the concentration could be increasing. TF 73- is a greenish, vellow gas with a mmgent suffocating odor. It can cause severe damage to the lungs and eyes at concentrations as low as a few hundred parts per million. lb. is a colorless, odorless gas formed from the incomplete combustion of carbonaceous materials such as hydrocarbons, wood, and coal. 75- Symptoms of poisoning from the above mentioned gas (#7*0 are headache, nausea, drowsiness and eventual loss of consciousness. TF 76. Extremely loud noises or a high noise level over an extended period of time can result in permanent (2) 77. Early symptoms of exposure to excessive noise levels are or 78. Ear protection should be worn or time of exposure should be limited to the periods specified by OSKA where noise level exceeds 90 decibels (commonly referred to as 90dBA). TF 79.
