OSHA Wants Your Videos on Respiratory Protection!
From OSHA’s Cooperative Programs –
OSHA is producing several training mini-videos on various aspects of respiratory protection for workers in general industry and construction (e.g., fit testing, respiratory hazards in the workplace, medical evaluations, etc.). Through the Alliance Program, we are requesting your help in acquiring video footage or photos to use in the OSHA mini-videos.
OSHA would greatly appreciate any video footage or photos (300 dpi print quality or better) that you, your members, or downstream customers can provide. Video/photos of workplace hazards that could require respiratory protection, as well as workers actually using respiratory protection of any type (half/full facepiece, powered air purifying respirators, supplied air respirators), would be helpful. OSHA can also work with appropriate pieces from a company’s plant tour/employee training/promotional materials. Any material used will be credited.
The new training videos will be similar to the mini-videos that OSHA produced in 2009:
