| Abstract |
So that employers and employees within the electric utility industry can more readily recognize actual or potential occupational hazards, a series of comments and self-evaluation questions applicable to this industry has been prepared. This field-tested systematic questionnaire approach covers all identifiable work areas and work situations within utilities that use fossil fuel for electric power generation. After responsible persons complete a survey and an answer the question and after the condition of all work areas is further evaluated, if necessary, those areas that need upgrading will become obvious. Because pertinent occupational safety and health standards for electric utilities are included, implementing corrective action should provide a measure of assurance that OSHA standards are being met. A companion document 'Self-Evaluation of Occupational Safety and Health Programs' gives basic information applicable to all industries and should be used with 'Self-Evaluation Instrument--Electric Utility Industry' to aid in implementing a comprehensive occupational safety and health program. |
