Harmful Silica Construction Safety Training

Harmful Silica Construction Safety Training

Barely visible, but dangerous nonetheless, respirable crystalline silica is the byproduct of sawing, drilling, and crushing concrete, stone, and brick.  The dust particles are small enough to be inhaled deep into the lungs, where they can cause serious illness and fatal disease.  Learn about the OSHA standard that includes specific measures for employers to protect employees from exposure, including engineering controls, work practices, and respirators.

GLCA, our Safety Committee, and our Board of Directors sincerely appreciates the opportunity to work with the Construction Safety Council to provide this free safety training opportunity.
