Sample PPE Hazard Assessment Certification Form

Transcription

1 Sample PPE Hazard Assessment Certification Form Found in the OSHA General Industry Standard 29 CFR is the requirement for employers to conduct a workplace assessment of the hazards that may be present where Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) will be used to protect workers. The OSHA standard requires the employer show the workplace assessment was performed through a written certification that identifies the workplace evaluated; the person certifying the assessment was performed and the dates the assessment took place. Performing the Assessment For each job task, or area of a facility, complete a separate certification form. The assessment should be completed by an employee who is familiar with the type of work performed, the hazards associated with the task or in the area and the proper PPE that should be used to protect employees. Training Workers need to be trained on the proper use, fitting, cleaning and storage of any PPE they may be required to use for protection. When training employees a written training certification should also be completed and maintained on file. continued
