Links to websites outside of DOL, are offered for your convenience in accessing related information, but do not constitute an endorsement of the website, or its content, nor does it suggest that there are not other websites which may offer related information.

• This information has been developed by an OSHA Compliance Assistance Specialist and is intended to assist employers, workers, and others as they strive to improve workplace health and safety. While we attempt to thoroughly address specific topics [or hazards], it is not possible to include discussion of everything necessary to ensure a healthy and safe working environment in a presentation of this nature. Thus, this information must be understood as a tool for addressing workplace hazards, rather than an exhaustive statement of an employer’s legal obligations, which are defined by statute, regulations, and standards. Likewise, to the extent that this information references practices or procedures that may enhance health or safety, but which are not required by a statute, regulation, or standard, it cannot, and does not, create additional legal obligations. Finally, over time, OSHA may modify rules and interpretations in light of new technology, information, or circumstances; to keep apprised of such developments, or to review information on a wide range of occupational safety and health topics, you can visit OSHA’s website at www.osha.gov.

Frequently Asked Questions

• How were these links selected?– The links on this CD were chosen primarily based on three criteria: Government

Related, Industry Related, Non-Profit Related. Preferably there was a wide selection of free information on the sites and readily downloadable

• What is OSHCON?– The OSHA Consultation Services (OSHCON) is a free consultation service for

small employers located in each State. The OSHCONs are primarily funded by Federal OSHA and are not related to OSHA enforcement activities

• With an OSHCON in every State why are only a few referenced?– Approximately half of the States are Federal OSHA States and the other half are

State Planned States. State OSHAs must have standards at least as stringent as Federal OSHA but they may be different. This PPT primarily references OSHCONs in Federal OSHA States and those that had safety resources on their website. If you are operating in a State Planned State be sure to check to see what the requirements are in that State. For more information on the OSHCON Program go to: http://www.osha.gov/dcsp/smallbusiness/consult.html

Frequently Asked Questions

• What are the STEPS Networks?– The STEPS Network was originally formed in the Corpus Christi area as a

collaboration between OSHA and companies involved in the oil and gas exploration and production industry to reduce injuries and illnesses.

• Will the PPT be updated?– The PPT may be updated periodically as additional resources are discovered

or in the event a number of the links need updated.

• Will any other resource PPTs be developed?– A similar resource PPT is under development for the construction and

residential construction industry, manufacturing, and an updated version of the previous Disaster Preparedness CD. Eventually the various industry areas will be combined into one overall PPT with industries broken out into subsections.

• Who should I contact with comments or questions about the PPT?– Contact Jim Shelton at shelton.james@dol.gov regarding comments or

additional resources that may be useful on an updated CD/PPT. If you find this PPT useful let us know too. Feedback will determine future projects.
