This online engineering PDH interactive presentation provides an overview of common sources of electrical hazards in the workplace and the different measures to control it.

Electricity is essential to modern life, both at home and on the job. Some employees — engineers, electricians, electronic technicians, and power line workers, among them — work with electricity directly.

However, electricity has long been recognized as a serious workplace hazard, exposing employees to electric shock, electrocution, burns, fires, and explosions. In 1999, for example, 278 workers died from electrocutions at work, accounting for almost 5 percent of all on-the-job fatalities that year, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. What makes these statistics more tragic is that most of these fatalities could have been easily avoided.

This 1 PDH online interactive presentation is intended primarily for electrical and mechanical engineers, technicians and professionals who are interested in learning more about safe work practices for protection against electrical hazards.

This online engineering PDH interactive presentation provides a brief overview of the hazards of electrical work and the basic approaches to working safely.

Whenever you work with power tools or on electrical circuits, there is a risk of electrical hazards, especially electrical shock. Anyone can be exposed to these hazards at home or at work. Workers are exposed to more hazards because job sites can be cluttered with tools and materials, fast-paced, and open to the weather. Risk is also higher at work because many jobs involve electric power tools.

This presentation helps prepare you for additional safety training such as hands-on exercises and more detailed reviews of regulations for electrical work. Practices that will help keep you safe and free of injury are emphasized. This presentation will also present to you important definitions and notes. To give you an idea of the hazards caused by electricity, case studies about real-life deaths will be described.

This online engineering PDH interactive presentation provides responsible employers, workers, and worker representatives with a sound, flexible framework for addressing safety and health issues on diverse construction job sites.

Establishing a safety and health program at your job site is one of the most effective ways of protecting your most valuable asset: your workers. Losing workers to injury or illness, even for a short time, can cause significant disruption and cost—to you as well as the workers and their families. Safety and health programs foster a proactive approach to “finding and fixing” job site hazards before they can cause injury or illness. Rather than reacting to an incident, management and workers collaborate to identify and solve issues before they occur. This collaboration builds trust, enhances communication, and often leads to other business improvements.

This 1 PDH online interactive presentation is applicable to health and safety engineers, construction and project managers, site engineers, and anyone who is interested in improving the standard and level of health and safety on construction sites.

This online engineering PDH interactive presentation focuses on Safety Service Patrols (SSPs) which have been in use in one form or another since the early 1960s, and have emerged as a vital part of Traffic Incident Management (TIM) programs.

 

This course discusses Safety service patrols to improve safety on the roadway and to minimize the effect incidents have on the operation of the transportation network. Safety service patrols on freeway and arterial roadways provide a traffic management tool for transportation agencies across the country. A swift response to incidents provides effective temporary traffic control and quick clearance practices and reduces the chance of secondary accidents and bottlenecks. As more agencies assess their needs for traffic management and the benefits of service patrols, there are many best practices they can use in their decision-making processes for new or existing program enhancements. This report identifies existing service patrol programs for lessons learned, best practices employed, and those priorities that agencies should consider.
