Union Awareness
by Skillsoft
According to the U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics, in 2004, 12.5 percent of wage and salary workers were union members--down from 12.9 percent in 2003. Why is membership declining? Perhaps the growing number of laws in place to protect workers prevents the necessity of unions, or perhaps the nature of the work itself has changed. Regardless of the decline, workers still have the legal right to form unions, and you need a basic understanding of workers' rights, and what rights you have as an employer. It's important to understand why employees form unions, and how best to deal with them in your workplace.

The Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS)
by Skillsoft
The GHS, an acronym for The Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals, is a system aiming to standardize and harmonize the classification and labeling of chemicals. Although many countries follow regulatory systems for the safe handing and transport of chemicals through labels and safety data sheets, there is no standard approach. So while the formats are similar in different countries, the differences are significant enough to warrant different labeling and safety data sheets for the same product in different markets. With the gradual implementation of the GHS worldwide, countries have consistent and appropriate information on the chemicals they import or produce, and the infrastructure to control chemical exposures and protect people and the environment can be established in a comprehensive manner. This course introduces the GHS and explains how hazards are classified and communicated through the use of labels and safety data sheets.Audience: All employeesObjectives: The Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS) identify the goals of the GHS describe how the GHS will be implemented categorize physical, health, and environmental hazards interpret hazard information in a GHS label identify the standard label elements describe how transport labels differ from standard GHS labels describe key concepts related to safety data sheets Duration: 0.5

Introduction to Industrial Hygiene
by Skillsoft
All employees should expect to work in as safe an environment as possible, whether they work in an office building, a factory, or a nuclear power plant. Since ancient times, medical professionals, social activists, and philosophers have observed and written about the various dangers associated with the work people do. In modern times, governments and industry professionals have stepped up and taken responsibility for creating legislation that protects workers from various types of hazards. The field of study that has emerged out of the need to create safe and healthy work environments is called industrial hygiene. All employees should be aware of the hazards they face, as well as steps they can take to minimize the risk of injury and disease. All supervisors should be aware of the regulations they must follow to ensure workers' exposure to dangerous chemicals and hazards is below legal limits. It is the role of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) to educate both workers and their supervisors in the limits OSHA has set for exposure to various workplace hazards. This course gives a general introduction to the work of the industrial hygienists. It also explains the types of hazards that workers may face, the health effects of such hazards, and measures that are taken to limit exposure.Audience: Employees, supervisors, and managersObjectives: Introduction to Industrial Hygiene identify the definition of industrial hygiene identify the agency that enforces the principles of industrial hygiene match types and forms of exposure limits to their definitions match routes of exposure with examples recognize examples of situations that could cause injury or enable hazardous substances to enter the human body classify examples of hazards categorize examples of controls used to minimize exposure to workplace hazards identify the main types of controls used to minimize exposure to workplace hazards Duration: 1
