Creating a Manufacturing Health and Safety Program




Creating a Manufacturing Health and Safety Program

The Bureau of Labor Statistics states that private industry employers reported 2.7 million nonfatal workplace injuries in 2020. This number does not account for injuries that are classified as first aid or workplace deaths. Employers have a responsibility to provide a safe and healthful workplace to reduce workplace injuries. An effective safety program can provide a method to accomplish this task.

The Creating a Manufacturing Health and Safety Program course is based on the Occupational Health and safety recommendations. The course reviews the seven core elements of a successful safety program. These core elements are as follows:

· management leadership

· worker participation

· communication and communication for host employers, contractors, and staffing agencies

· Hazard Identification and assessment

· Hazard Prevention and Controls

· Education and training

· Program Evaluation and Improvements

The course will then put all of the core elements together. Each core element builds on the other and is critical for creating a solid safe workplace system. For instance, management leadership is not effective without worker involvement. Material from the Occupational Health and Safety Administration is included in this course as well as other material that can be utilized to build an effective safety program. This material includes a job hazard analysis template, a safety dashboard, a safety FMEA risk assessment spreadsheet, and instructions on completing the OSHA 300 report.
