PB83178822

Publication Date	1977
Page Count	42
Abstract	This Good Practices Manual has been prepared for insulation installers to help them become more aware of some of the potential hazards of their day-to-day work so that they won't become a statistic. Not every insulation installer will encounter every hazard discussed. Nor are these hazards the only ones that the worker may face on the job. But the more workers know about the hazards or potential hazards of a job the safer they can work. If they cannot stay away from the hazard, they can learn a step by step procedure designed to lessen the hazard, including wearing protective clothing as instructed.
