OSHA offers online hazard advisor - OSHA's new
interactive software allows you to identify and understand
some of the more common occupational safety and health
hazards.
Although it cannot substitute for a professional
safety and health consultant, OSHA's new Hazard
Awareness Advisor is an invaluable interactive tool
that will help you identify and understand some
of the more common occupational safety and health
hazards in your work place.
The Hazard Awareness Advisor questions users about
workplace activities, practices, materials, equipment,
and policies. The program uses your answers to determine
the hazards that are likely to be present. It then
prepares a customized analysis that briefly describes
the likely hazards and the OSHA standards which
address those hazards.
A boon to small businesses who may not have a
safety consultant on staff, the Hazard
Awareness Advisor is a free Windows program
that can be downloaded from the OSHA site.
