The U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) launched a safety and health topics page on its web site for employers and employees in the concrete products industry.
The page is a result of OSHA’s alliance and strategic partnership with the National Ready-Mix Concrete Association (NRMCA).
The Concrete and Concrete Products – Manufacturing and Construction page provides information on developing and implementing safety and health programs, including several examples from the construction and manufacturing portions of the industry.
Also available are links to other resources that identify the most common industry hazards and possible solutions.
The page highlights OSHA standards, compliance directives and standards interpretations related to manufacturing and construction in the concrete and concrete products industry.
It also includes electronic assistance tools and expert advisors, Spanish language materials, training information, success stories and additional resources from OSHA and other organizations.
