I have visited a couple clients this week and they did not have the 300A posted. Make sure you do this. The posting time is 2-1 to 4-30 but you can leave it up all year if you would like.George S. KunzAmerican Safety and HealthCell # 614/257-9545

We are currently looking into getting security/surveillance cameras. With today's events of mass shootings and workplace violence, we feel that we need some added security. Also, we feel that the cameras would be beneficial when it comes to accident investigations. My question is what is a common company/brand employer's use? We have a wide open warehouse with little obstructions. What would be a recommended camera? Can I go to a local electronics store or should I go through a company that specializes in security cameras?

Let's imagine you wanted to bring an experienced maintenance worker into the safety field as someone to train into a position and become an eventual safety leader for the company.
Their task would be to completely review your existing LO/TO program, modify-create any procedures and then train all personnel on Lockout-Tagout.
What training classes/seminars would you have them attend to make sure they are up to speed before they start.
OK, everything is worth hearing.. Lets have it!

Hello Everyone,

This is so easy to use after I realized it is simply an e-mail to the
address above.

Another Question:

I would like to know how other companies handle the requirement to
annually evaluate the Lockout/Tagout programs at their companies. Do you
re-authorize operators to LOTO for each specific piece of equipment or
simply evaluate the LOTO instructions for each and consider them
reviewed at that point? I have received conflicting information and as
usual OSHA is very vague - deliberately so I think!

Hello everyone,

I am wondered how other manufacturing companies handle long hair in the
workplace and what their policies say. We currently require anyone with
hair below the collar to pull it back and up above the collar when they
are in the Production Areas. How do others handle this?

We are constantly having outside contractors come into our facilities to work on our equipment. We usually use the contractor that has a good safety record and we make sure that they comply with our safety rules. The one concern that I have is at times they may have to use some of our equipment. A good example is that we have an outside contractor come in and inspect our overhead cranes all the time. In order for them to get up in the crane they use our scissor lift. What things can I do to not only protect our

This discussion list worked so well the last time that I used it, I thought
I would try again.

The questions relate to camera surveillance systems:

What (or who's) surveillance systems are you using?

What are you using the surveillance system for? (Ex. Exterior Building,
Scrap, Break Rooms, etc.)

Is it monitored or simply recorded and referred to on an as needed basis?

We were wondering what other companies do in case of a tornado. We all know
that if we listen to a news forecast, we can get advisement if the
conditions are right for a tornado to occur.

However, what if a tornado was actually in the close vicinity? What type of
warning systems do you use to quickly alert your employees to immediately
get to the safe areas?

Hiya All,

We have a little problem for April. Our speaker is unable to make the meeting on April 9th. The topic is supposed to be I2P2, and at the moment, we don't have a name to plug into the slot.

The Steering Committee works very hard to ensure that we get the best speakers we can for the topics you request. But sometimes we need a little help, so if you know someone who has insight in I2P2 and would like to get up in front of the Council after a nice hot breakfast, please make that person known

As most, if not all, of you know, Dick Higgins was truly the driving force behind the Forklift Rodeo. It was his energy, insight, and vision that drove the program to the pinnacle where we hosted international teams here in Springfield Ohio. But with Dick's passing, there really has been nobody truly capable of filling his shoes, and for that reason, the Rodeo has been set aside for the past two years.

This is just another reminder that we REALLY need help for the fair booth! If you can spare just a few hours over the time frame, you would have our undying respect and appreciation. Here's the scoop.

The fair will begin on July 22nd, and run through the 29th. It will open at 8:00 each morning, and the booths will end at 6:00 in the evening. But the key is, we need to man the booth the whole time! So far, I have only three volunteers, and two "voluntolds". That's just not enough support to make this booth happen.

Hiya Folks,

Sorry for the delay in asking for volunteers, but with Dick's recent mishap, I'm trying to pick-up the reins on the fair and get the last-minute coordination done to make things happen.

As usual, we have a booth, and I need some bodies to man it. I can offer free admittance into the fair, parking . . . somewhere near the building . . . and lots of fun, frivolity, and warm weather. And all you have to do is to agree to do a stint . . . or two . . . or three . .

Hello everyone

The Safety Council steering committee has come up with some new and exciting
ideas to improve on the services the Safety Council offers to its members.
Before implementing these ideas, I thought I would run some of these ideas
past you the "membership" to see what you think of them. Because after all
your involvement would be crucial to their success.

Good Morning All,

I'm sure many of you won't receive this until after you return to work from
the storm. However, when you do, I'm also sure you'll be glad to hear that
we have rescheduled our breakfast meeting to Next Tuesday, February 16,
barring we get any more snow, that is.

It will still be at the same time and location, so just move today's Outlook
reminder to next Tuesday, and we'll see you there.

Good Morning Everyone,

While I'm soaking up some lovely weather along the Gulf Coast in Mississippi, I see that all of you are buried under a cold white blanket, and will be for most of this week. For that reason, the Steering Committee of the Safety Council has made the determination to cancel tomorrow's breakfast meeting. At present we don't have a makeup date yet. But we should have one soon, and will alert everyone to the new date.

Good morning everyone,

It's me again. First I would like to thank everyone that

protection regarding flying particles. We have several machine centers
that require the use of an air gun to blow out chips, etc. and have had
2 eye injuries as a result. I have found literature regarding both, and
in my opinion goggles seem to be the preferred method. However, there is
the comfort and convenience factor of a face shield over the goggles
that will be the bigger problem. The air guns are

forklift training, however I have never been certified and I have only
been on a forklift once in my life. In reading the OSHA standard I am

people that have been forklift drivers since they have been with the
company, is that sufficient qualifications?

Ok, here's my most recent dilemma. One of the aspects of the military in regards to OSHA is that we have a few different rules than they. But I believe that the following reference in our Air Force OSH Standard (91-501, Para 5.7) is similar to an OSHA requirement. Here's the reference:

I am looking for the NFPA 10 code relating to the inspection standard
for portable extinguishers including information related to the tag not
being removed. If anyone is aware of a state code related to the same
issue please pass that information on as well. I have spent a good deal
of time online and anything I found relates back to the NFPA code.

This is just a last call for folks interested in the mishap investigation seminar taking place tomorrow. We still need to fill about eight seats to meet our reservation.

Regardless, let me share for a moment the importance of accident investigation. In my "company", we track mishaps that cost more than $500, require a trip to the local emergency room, and/or generate a claim under worker's compensation. Part of this tracking is to do both formal and informal investigations to figure out what really happened.

Here's a bit of an odd question. I don't have a copy of the general industry VSSR regulations, and could use a web link for them if anyone has one.

Here's my question. Does the VSSR address traffic within the boundaries of an industrial site? And if so, what would those rules entail? Along with that, I assume the VSSR has a general duty clause. Does anyone have that reference or a reprint of that clause.

Hiya Folks,

Just a reminder that next Tuesday we will be hosting a panel of experts for you to bring your questions and concerns for their wise advisement. It's a great opportunity to get those nitpick questions answered that you can't seem to find anyone to answer without a $100 an hour consulting fee. So get your money's worth - since the only cost is for the breakfast - and come equipped with plenty of questions for our panel to answer.

Good afternoon fellow Safety Council Members and friends,

The information below is an email subscription service update I received
this week from the DOL. It contains many valuable resources from OSHA on
several different topics, some even available in Spanish as well as
English versions. I found several of the publications useful for our
Safety efforts and wanted to forward in case any one else might need
something like these materials as well.

Just one small correction on the announcement for the "Ask the Experts" breakfast meeting. The date is September 8, not August 11 (next Tuesday). Please adjust accordingly.

However, you're still invited to attend both. Next Tuesday we'll be discussing "Safety Awards and Incentives". This also is a hot topic, and one that can make the difference between a lackluster safety plan, and a truly active risk assessment and mishap avoidance program.

bldg. We need your help to staff the booth from July 24th-31st. If you can

Our plants have had oxygen units as part of our first aid emergency response
program for years. Recently, during a Basic First Aid/CPR/AED training class,
the instructor questioned our having them, stating our level of training did not
qualify us to determine whether oxygen should be administered in an
emergency. I was not in the class, so I couldn't confront the instructor. I
cannot imagine how this could be detrimental to anyone's health or well being.
Do any other companies have oxygen units? Does anyone have an opinion on
this?

Fall, Winter, and the flu season are fast approaching.

Has anyone addressed the issue of Pandemic Flu?

Good Morning All,

Just a couple of administrative points to clean up.

First and foremost, the list is for "discussion" and not "advertisement".
If you want to put your company name and address in your tag line, that's
one thing. But to offer goods and services using the list is a major faux
pas! So please keep the posts professional. There will be some
"advertising", if you want to call it that, but it will be notices for
Safety Council events and information and not for goods and services.

Now to put this list to its intended use.

Tomorrow, (if I don't have my calendar messed up) the Program Committee, a
sub-committee of the Steering Committee, will get together to discuss
upcoming breakfast and seminar topics. We have gotten some good input from
all of you from the critique sheets. But that's just a quick written
one-liner. So I figured I'd ask on the list before tomorrow and see if
there are any pressing topics of interest out there you would like the
council to follow-up on? What say all of ye?

As the 2007 Chair of your Springfiled/Clark County Safety Council, I would
like to welcome everyone to the SCCSC Forum. Getting the forum up and
running has been a labor of love for David Arthur, and I hope it proves
beneficial in your quest to provide a safe workplace for your employees.
I hope to "chat" with you soon.

Hiya All,

I apologize for the number of e-mails this morning. Amy inadvertently sent
a "test" to the list, and everyone thought they had to respond. Please do
not reply to her post, as it continues to bounce throughout the forum.

Some of you have reported you are receiving two posts each time. This is
likely because there are two accounts on the list server. If that's the
case and you are receiving two posts each time, let me know and I'll fix the
problem immediately.

Hello Everyone,

Here's the user's manual. It has all of the information you'll need in
order to operate smoothly on the list. As you can see by Amy's post, when
you send a note to the list, it goes to everyone, and if you send the wrong
message or ask the wrong question . . . well, it goes to everyone.

Hi Amy,

I need some help from you. I am receiving two copies of every email from
the Safety Council - this has been going on for some time. My email
address must be listed twice on the distribution list. Possible email
addresses are [log in to unmask] & [log in to unmask] Please delete
the [log in to unmask] I am a little frustrated with this and am getting
close to asking you to take me off the distribution list all together.

Welcome to the Springfield/Clark County Safety Council Discussion List.
This is the e-mail discussion list that we announced was coming late last
year. There were plenty of technical obstacles to overcome, but we finally
did it. We found a list server and they were so kind as to donate the list
so we could get this up and running. You are subscribed because your
company is a member company of the Springfield/Clark County Safety Council.

Ok, the day is here and I'm about to post the welcome to the list. I never
did get a good list of names and e-mail addresses, so I'll send what I
loaded to Al and Amy for a quick check. The list I have is from Zach from
early this year.

If there are any last minute questions or comments, make them now. I'll be
setting everyone to "mail" in a moment and will post the welcome in about a
half-hour. So if you have anything you want to go just to the steering
committee, make sure you send

Ok, the vote came up unanimous that the list should be restricted to member
companies only. Thus, when someone subscribes, we will check to ensure they
are from one of our members before adding them to the list.

Next question. I'm hesitant on allowing attachments on the list because of
the bulk they bring. However, the option is open. Do we want to allow
people to post attachments with their posts to the list? Thus if someone
wanted to send pictures or documents to the group, they could just attach
them. Of course, that also drives up the size of

Ok, here's our first real question for discussion. We need to decide who
can subscribe. We talked about this months ago when we were at the retreat,
but I didn't get a concrete decision as to whether we were limiting the list
to employees of member companies only, or if we were going to just throw the
doors open wide and let anyone who wanted to subscribe join. Personally, I
think it should be a perk for our member companies, and if someone wants to
take part in the list, they should join the council. However, it is a good

Ok steering committee, except for Dick's address, it looks as if everyone is
receiving the list, though not all of you have checked in with me to confirm
yet.

I still have some work to do on the manual, but I'll have it done in plenty
of time for the début on August 1st. Because the steering committee is
already subscribed, we can start talking amongst ourselves using the list.
I have it set so that if you hit "Reply" in your mail reader, you will
address the original sender ONLY. If you use "Reply All" in your mail
client,
