Workplace Ergonomics
• Workstations Must be Adapted to the User – Not the Other Way Around
• 90-90-90 rule while sitting: bend at the elbow, waist and knee

• EHS provides workplace assessments if employees are experiencing workplace ‘stresses’
ErgonomicsProper Lifting activities Avoid these activities
Lockout/Tagout: Controls of Hazardous Energy
Proper lockout/tagout (LOTO) practices and procedures safeguard workers from the release of hazardous energy
NEVER remove someone else’s lock and tag from any machine, equipment or device
NEVER try to energize or start any machine, equipment, or device while it is locked or tagged out
Mechanical Safety Awareness
• Be aware of potential danger points on mechanical devices: • machine guarding• pinch points• point of operation
• Do not remove safetyguards from mechanical devices
HAZARD COMMUNICATION
In order to ensure chemical safety in the workplace, information about the identities and hazards of the chemicals must be available and understandable to workers. The Hazard Communication Standard is maintained by OSHA.
4 Key Parts to Hazard Communication Programs
Labeling
Training

• Product Identification• Composition• Hazard Identification• First Aid• Fire-fighting measures• Accidental-Release
measures• Exposure control• Personal Protection
• Physical and Chemical properties
