Archive Webinar: DON'T CUT COSTS & INVITE AN OSHA
CITATION
Reducing Hand Injuries, PPE Costs & Maintaining OSHA Compliance
Speaker: Ansell
In today's economic environment many companies are striving to reduce
costs in every aspect of their plant operations. Decision makers often
target personal protective equipment (PPE) for cost-cutting measures and
implement changes without fully understanding the impact on worker
safety.
At the same time companies are trying to reduce their PPE expenditures,
OSHA is stepping up enforcement activity and adding inspectors.
Companies can achieve cost reduction mandates without reducing worker
protection by making smart PPE choices.
This webinar will address the following:
• The present situation and the challenges companies face
• Common hand injuries and their causes
• OSHA compliance and selecting the right PPE
• How to balance PPE costs with worker protection
The presentation will include several case studies detailing various
situations and challenges, the solutions implemented and the results.
The case studies also provide estimated cost savings.
