    Brief
    Course Description

    Industrial
    Safety Eyewear

    The
    information in this course is provided by the Occupational Safety and
    Health Administration (OSHA) which was established in 1971 and is a
    federal agency operating under the auspices of the U.S. Department of
    Labor.

    OSHA’s
    mission is to ensure safe and healthful workplaces in America. Since
    the agency was created in 1971, workplace fatalities have been cut in
    half and occupational injury and illness rates have declined 40 percent.
    At the same time, U.S. employment has doubled from 56 million workers
    at 3.5 million worksites to 111 million workers at 7 million sites.

    This
    course begins with the OSHA statement on eye protection and continues
    with information on selecting eye and face protection against impact,
    heat, chemicals, dust, and optical radiation. The course continues to
    survey OSHA requirements for eye and face protection and summarizes
    the ANSI Z-87.1 1989 standards. It goes on to cover the fitting, maintenance
    and care of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and includes excerpts
    from the actual OSHA standards. The course concludes with a listing
    of some frequently asked questions and a glossary of terms.
