Limitations of Do-It-Yourself Safety Installations
Are you mixing and matching your emergency equipment to create your version of a full system? In today's economic environment, many companies are taking shortcuts to try to provide emergency solutions and many are taking a huge risk. Learn why "do-it-yourself" options are hazardous, what you need to do to meet the ANSI Z3589.1 standard and learn how a professionally designed system will safeguard your employees, your bank account and your peace of mind.
In this one-hour webinar you will learn:
- Disadvantages and Dangers of "do-it-yourself" Systems
- How ANSI Z3859.1-2009 Standard Changes Affect Your System
- Benefits of Engineered Emergency Systems
Presented by Casey Hayes, Director of Engineered Solutions, Haws, Sparks, Nevada.
Workplace Safety: Understanding the New ANSI Z358.1-2009 Standard
If you are responsible for the installation, repair, or upkeep of industrial facilities where emergency equipment is used please join this webinar. The new ANSI standard, Z358.1-2009, has several changes and updates, which further establishes the minimum performance requirements for eyewash and shower equipment for the emergency treatment of the eyes or body of a person who has been exposed to injurious materials.
Presented by Casey Hayes, Director of Engineered Solutions, Haws, Sparks, Nevada.
Hydration Station™ Series: The Dangers of Dehydration
Every year thousands of people are injured on job sites due to lack of concentration or loss of focus. Many of these incidents are directly connected to heat related dehydration due to lack of accessible, clean, fresh drinking water. The issue of dehydration in the workplace has until recently been insufficiently researched, but current legal cases involving dehydrated workers has brought dehydration into current debate. This webinar:
- Addresses hydration importance
- Answers the questions of what is dehydration and how it affects the human body
- What employers can do to hydrate their employees and mitigate the effects that dehydration can have on a work force.
Presented by Lynice Anderson, RD, CDE, CSSD Renown Health, Reno, Nevada.
Workplace Safety: Specifying Eyewashes and Drench Showers
Emergency eyewash and drench shower products have been available to commercial and industrial users for about sixty years. Through that time, many specifiers have adopted the stance that the wide varieties of products available are quite similar in both form and function. The truth is that there are differences in design, operation and maintenance requirements that can materially alter product effectiveness and longevity. This webinar provides details on:
- What to look for in selecting eyewash and drench shower products, in terms of features, materials used in construction.
- Exploring the need to maintain consistency with accepted medical protocols, with respect to how in-plant initial emergency measures dovetail into downstream medical facility treatment.
Presented by Casey Hayes, Director of Engineered Solutions, Haws, Sparks, Nevada.
In practical use, emergency showers and eyewashes mitigate the harmful effects of exposures to hazardous materials by using water to drench the affected areas of the body. Significant volumes of water are used to both remove any remaining hazardous materials and curtail the effects of contact to that point. This webinar:
- Addresses tempered water importance
- How to specify a tempered water system for a project
Presented by Casey Hayes, Director of Engineered Solutions, Haws, Sparks, Nevada.
