MARCOM's "Respiratory Safety" Employee Booklet points out to employees why it is important that they learn to recognize... and guard against... respiratory hazards. Both OSHA and NIOSH have recently issued changes to their Respiratory Protection Training Requirements. One of the problems with many respiratory hazards (such as fumes or gases) is that employees can not easily "see" them. Even more visible hazards, such as dusts, are often accepted as part of a "normal" work environment. As a result, many respiratory problems only become clearly evident well after the original exposure. Yet once they occur, most respiratory problems are "chronic" and long lasting. The Booklet includes information on the physiology of the human respiratory system, how the respiratory system functions, common causes of respiratory problems, potential effects of hazards, respiratory safety practices, the use of respiratory safety equipment, and more. The Employee Booklet features text, illustrations and a Quiz, and is 16 pages in length. Booklets are available in packages of 15.
