Funky Things in the Air
In this information packed and interactive seminar, we will explore some of the most common materials on commercial construction projects that when disturbed, become airborne, and hazardous to workers, building occupants, and the general public. As we explore the hazards of lead, asbestos, and silica, we will discuss the proper procedures for working under conditions where they are present and address regulations, abatement procedures, air monitoring, protective equipment and much more.

Do you have chemicals in your workplace? Do you use hazardous chemicals while conducting work operations? If you answered “yes” to either or both of these questions, then this seminar pertains to you. We will take a deep dive into OSHA’s Hazard Communication Standard and give you a better understanding of how to use the Globally Harmonized System (GHS) as well as the tasks that must be undertaken to achieve and maintain compliance. Participants will learn how to read the GHS labels and safety data sheets and will be provided with materials to use moving forward.

EMR, TRIR, & DART- Managing Leading and Lagging Indicators of Pre-Qualification
The Workers’ Compensation Insurance Experience Modification Rating (EMR) has been used in contractor pre-qualifications for years, but with the recent changes to the calculation it is becoming increasingly difficult to maintain a 1.00 or below. In this seminar we will address how to build a pro-active plan to manage the EMR along with other pre-qualification factors such as the Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR) and the Days Away, Restricted, or Transferred (DART) Rate. Presenters: Aaron Brown | TrueNorth Construction Specialty Group, Cedar Rapids, IA/Sarah Allender | TrueNorth Construction Specialty Group, Cedar Rapids, IA
