OSHA & Society of the Plastics Industry form alliance
OSHA and the Society of the Plastics Industry, Inc. (SPI) have established an alliance to promote safe and healthful workplaces in member facilities.
The alliance will assist in providing member employers with information and guidance to help them protect employees, particularly in the identification and elimination of hazards likely to result in amputations, including machine guarding and lockout/tagout. The alliance will also aid employers in reducing and preventing exposure to ergonomic hazards and provide them training in identifying and controlling these and other hazards.
