Thirteen Things

In honor of back to school.....Thirteen things I’ve learned in BU135, aka OSHA & Security:

1.Tools in the work place should be checked for excessive vibration

2. The general duty clause of OSHAct requires that employers provide a workplace that is free from hazards that are likely to harm employees.

3. Boyle’s law states that the product of a given pressure and volume is constant with a constant temperature.

4. The Three E’s of Safety are: Engineering, Education and Enforcement.

5. Simple Minds sings Don’t You Forget about Me, the theme song from The Breakfast Club.

6. Every one of my instructor’s female horses has kicked him in the junk at least once.

7. OSHAct applies only to employers with 11 or more employees.

8. Critical burns are second-degree burns that cover 30 percent of body surface area.

9. To reduce pressure hazards, pressurized hoses should be as short as possible.

10. Hard hats are tested to withstand 40 foot-pounds of impact.

11. The most common cause of work injuries is overexertion.

12. There are no OSHA standards to cover sick building syndrome.

13. Sponge Bob Square Pants lives in the town of Bikini Bottom.
