On the Safe Side podcast Episode 16: Hazard communication training and women in safety

EDITOR’S NOTE: Each month, the Safety+Health editorial team discusses important safety topics, and interviews leading voices in the profession.

In fiscal year 2020, OSHA’s standard on hazard communication (1910.1200) was No. 2 on the agency’s Top 10 list of most cited standards. In Episode 16, we discuss our feature story on hazard communication training, including why employers have issues with that portion of the standard and ways to reinforce training on the job. Also: Veteran safety professional Pam Walaski talks about the challenges and opportunities for women in safety.
