OSHA Site Supervisor Seminar: A new understanding of safety is required at all levels of management from the CEO to the line supervisor. Safety performance is included as part of a site supervisor's overall job evaluation.
What is a Site
Supervisor? A Site safety and health
supervisor (or official) refers to the individual on a hazardous waste site who
is;
- Responsible to the employer for site safety;
- Has the authority and knowledge necessary to
implement the site safety and health plan;
- Verifies compliance with applicable safety and
health requirements.
The supervisor must constantly watch over and inspect both the workplace and work procedures, keeping in mind the three E's of safety: Engineering, Education, and Enforcement. It is the supervisor's job to work with safety and health professionals, designers, engineers, maintenance, and personnel staff to engineer as many hazards out of the workplace as possible, to educate employees in safe work practices and procedures, and to enforce all safety rules and policies. In this role, the supervisor acts as investigator, safety researcher, and advocate.
This course is designed for Site Supervisors and others who manage hazardous material site workers. This information will provide supervisors and managers specific information in order to properly supervise workers, remediation investigations, and oversee other site activities. This training meets the requirements outlined in paragraph "e" of 29 CFR 1910.120.
