Health Update For Construction • Silica – Proposed
Rule• Portland Cement• Noise • Lead• Cadmium• Arsenic • Carbon Monoxide –
LEP
• Asbestos• Isocyanates – LEP• Heat Stress• Citations for
1926.20(b)(2)• HazCom

Silica
• Silica Proposed Rule– Public Comment is over
• Standard Finalized approximately 2016
– Proposed Action Level of 30 ug/m3– Proposed PEL of 50 ug/m3– The proposed standard will likely follow the same
formats as other expanded standards.
![Page 5: DOE Construction Safety Advisory Committee Meeting August 20, 2014](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56813c03550346895da56767/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Portland Cement
• Chemical Burn• Neutralizing agent for burn• Most employees have not been trained about the chemical
burns
• PPE required – skin protection
• PEL 50 mppcf
![Page 6: DOE Construction Safety Advisory Committee Meeting August 20, 2014](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56813c03550346895da56767/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Noise
• Noise in construction– No action level – PEL 90 dba.
• Hearing protection is required.• Region 5 is considering a LEP for noise in
construction• Annual audiograms will be enforced for long
term employees.
![Page 7: DOE Construction Safety Advisory Committee Meeting August 20, 2014](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56813c03550346895da56767/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Lead• NEP – Lead
– Inspections are being initiated whenever an employee is potentially exposed to lead.
– EPA and the Consumer Product Safety Commission does have safe limits for lead in materials.
• OSHA has no safe limit for lead for % lead found in materials.
• OSHA will not accept Objective or Historical data if it is not same or similar condition.
![Page 8: DOE Construction Safety Advisory Committee Meeting August 20, 2014](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56813c03550346895da56767/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Cadmium and Arsenic• Old paints have cadmium and arsenic• These are expanded standards and employers
need to determine if the coated structures they are working on have these chemical. Competent person must determine if it is present.– Bulk sampling– Wipe sampling
![Page 9: DOE Construction Safety Advisory Committee Meeting August 20, 2014](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56813c03550346895da56767/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Carbon Monoxide
• Illinois and Wisconsin have an LEP on Carbon Monoxide.
• Keep all generators outside of the building and out of confined areas.
• Area monitoring not accepted personal monitoring required.
![Page 10: DOE Construction Safety Advisory Committee Meeting August 20, 2014](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56813c03550346895da56767/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Asbestos
• Cross training with EPA.– Identifying Health and Safety violations during EPA
investigations• EPA Criminal Division training.• In buildings built prior to the 1980’s must be
considered PACM
![Page 11: DOE Construction Safety Advisory Committee Meeting August 20, 2014](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56813c03550346895da56767/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Isocyanates
• Isocyanates – NEP– Industries mostly affected are
• Painting and Wall covering contractors• Drywall and Insulation Contractors• Flooring Contractors• Glass and Glazing Contractors
– Employer needs to conduct a medical evaluation of employees prior to working with chemicals containing Isocyanates
![Page 12: DOE Construction Safety Advisory Committee Meeting August 20, 2014](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56813c03550346895da56767/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Heat Stress
• Several fatalities last year.– Water Rest Shade– Acclimatization– Alternative work schedules– Heat prevention program– Training and Competent Person.
• 5a1 violations have been issued. Administrative Law Judge decision pending.
![Page 13: DOE Construction Safety Advisory Committee Meeting August 20, 2014](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56813c03550346895da56767/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Citations for 1926.20(b)(2)
• CSHOs may cite employers for failure to conduct and adequate workplace hazard assessment under 29 CFR 1926.20(b)(2). The OSHRC has upheld a violation of this standard, when an employer has failed to conduct air sampling as part of competent persons inspection.
![Page 14: DOE Construction Safety Advisory Committee Meeting August 20, 2014](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56813c03550346895da56767/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
• Employee Information and Training
• Although this paragraph remains essentially the same, updates include– Training to include label elements and new safety data
sheet format - by December 1, 2013
– Training to reflect any new hazards identified in the workplace - by June 1, 2016

Construction's "Fatal Four“
Out of 4,175* worker fatalities in private industry in calendar year 2012, 806 or 19.3% were in construction. The leading causes of worker deaths on construction sites were falls, followed by struck by object, electrocution, and caught-in/between.
These "Fatal Four" were responsible for more than half (54.2%) the construction worker deaths in 2012*, BLS reports.
Eliminating the Fatal Four would save 437 workers' lives in America every year.•Falls – 279 out of 806 total deaths in construction in CY 2012 (34.6%)•Struck by Object – 79 (9.8%)•Electrocutions – 66 (8.1%)•Caught-in/between – 13 (1.6%)

Work-related Fatalities, Injuries, and Illnesses This section presents data for the industry on the number of workplace fatalities and the rates of
workplace injuries and illnesses per 100 full-time workers in construction. An injury or illness is
considered to be work-related if an event or exposure in the work environment either caused or
contributed to the resulting condition or significantly aggravated a pre-existing condition.
