The Weak Link in Toxic, Hazardous Chemical Safety
Direct employees might be ingrained with an operation’s safety protocol, but what about its contractors & subcontractors?
Regardless of the industry, if hazardous chemicals are on a job site, the chance for accidental release is present if they aren’t properly controlled, which lifts the possibility of a potential disaster.
To combat deaths and injuries from industrial accidents, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires businesses that deal with a volume of hazardous chemicals at or above a threshold set by the administration must develop a process safety management program that follows a list of requirements from OSHA.
