Details: Parent Category: Safety Info Posts; Category: Respiratory Protection; Published: 09 July 2014

This new Respiratory Protection Directive updates OSHA’s inspection procedures and enforcement policies since the previous update, September 25, 1998. This Instruction provides guidance to the national, regional, and area offices for performing compliance inspections involving OSHA’s Respiratory Protection Standard, 29 CFR 1910.134. This Instruction also serves to inform industry, employer and worker groups, state programs, and other federal agencies concerning OSHA's policy and procedures for implementing intervention and inspection programs to reduce or eliminate workplace exposures related to hazardous airborne substances. This is a MUST READ for all respirator program administrators, as there are a few surprises in this CPL!!! For one... if anyone other than the PLCHP is maintaining your Questionnaires you may have some issues regarding "confidentiality"!
