CPWR—The Center for Construction Research and Training will hold Joint AIHA-CPWR Webinar: Addressing Four Major Health-Related Hazards in Construction June 14 at 2 p.m. EDT.
The American Industrial Hygiene Association published a guidance document in 2019 about four key health hazards in construction. Modeled after the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s Focus Four program targeting the top four construction safety hazards, AIHA’s Focus Four for Health raises awareness of the significant effects four health hazards—manual material handling, noise, air contaminants and high temperatures—can have on workers and businesses and offers practical solutions to address them.
During the webinar, you will learn more about the risks and recommendations from a representative of the team that developed the guidance document, as well as discover how CPWR’s Exposure Control Database can help contractors estimate and plan for exposure to silica, welding fumes, noise and lead.
