OSHA injury and illness recordkeeping remains a point of emphasis and a focus of enforcement for OSHA. Although the rules have been in effect since 2002, employers continue to struggle to understand how to apply the rules.

This OSHA Recordkeeping training will cover critical aspects of OSHA recordkeeping and its requirements, to be compliant with OSHA regulations.

Why Should You Attend:

Those responsible for maintaining filling out and recording injuries and illnesses are often confused by what should and should not be included in the OSHA recordkeeping forms. Over-reporting injuries and illnesses can be as serious as under-reporting injuries and illnesses, and can even lead to uncomfortable OSHA inquiries or even inspections. It is also difficult to know how to accurately account for time lost due to injuries and illnesses, especially in the case of a part-time work force. This webinar will help clarify what should be reported as an injury or illness, as well as how to account correctly for lost work time.

Many employers are also confused by which forms should be used to initially report injuries and illness, and those that should be used for submission to OSHA or the proper reporting agency. This session will discuss these and in addition, suggestions will be offered for maintaining confidentiality of the OSHA Injury and Illness data.

Areas Covered in the Seminar:

This seminar will help those tasked with filling out and maintaining OSHA Injury and Illness logs in the following:

Criteria to use in determining whether and injury or illness should be reported on the OSHA Log.
Understand the purpose of the OSHA Injury and Illness logs and forms.
How to calculate lost work days?
Techniques to assure that the information contained in the logs remains confidential.
How to calculate injury and illness rates for their workplace?

The Control of Hazardous Energy (LOTO - Lockout/Tag-out) - OSHA 1910.147 - Webinar By ComplianceOnline

Start: 06/12/2012 10:00 am

End: 06/12/2012 10:00 am

Timezone: America/Chicago

This webinar will help you understand OSHA’s requirements for preventing accidental release of energy or accidental start-up of equipment. You will learn what documents to have in place, including a written lockout/tagout plan, and how to implement it.

Why Should You Attend:

Due to the significant number of fatalities, injuries, fires, spills/releases, and “near misses” in manufacturing, OSHA requires procedures for isolating energy sources and equipment startup. Due to unauthorized persons trespassing or accidentally accessing the area and multiple employers working on these projects they are a significant target for lawsuits for accidental releases of energy or startups. Plaintiff attorneys target the failure of parties responsible for isolating energy sources and controls. Unfortunately, in most cases defendants were not aware of the OSHA requirements until it is too late. In 2011 lockout/tagout ranked 5th in the most common OSHA citation with 3,756 violations.

Learning Objectives:

Understand OSHA's lockout/tagout requirements.
There is more to hazardous energy control that locking out breakers.
Know what documents to have in place.
Reduce risk of unplanned equipment startups or energy releases.

This webinar provides an easy to follow outline for developing and updating the required HHS Laboratory Compliance Plan for any provider who bills Medicare or Medicaid for services.

Why Should You Attend:

With the enactment of PPACA in 2010, Compliance Plans are now mandatory for all providers who bill Medicare and Medicaid for their services.

This legislation is being enforced by the Office of Inspector General, OIG, within Health and Human Services, or HHS, Department.

This session provides an easy to follow outline for developing and updating the required HHS Laboratory Compliance Plan. Since the OIG has a zero tolerance policy for fraud and abuse, it is imperative that Laboratory Management and Administrators responsible for the Laboratory are knowledgeable about, and actively working toward maintaining compliance with the elements of the OIG Lab Model.

We will discuss required documents, staff training, audits, and helpful websites, to provide examples that each attendee may use to fulfill and update their Compliance Plan. In addition, we will identify future changes to regulations, and provide suggestions on ways to stay in compliance.

Areas Covered in the Seminar:

PPACA Legislation of 2010.
Required Elements of the Compliance Plan.
Definition of Medical Necessity.
Disciplinary and corrective action related to breach of the Compliance Plan.
Examples of documents, reviews and audits to maintain compliance.
Ongoing review of changes to regulations.
