Cancer Causing Chemicals Training Program Description
This Cancer Causing Chemicals PowerPoint® training program helps employers become compliant with OSHA standard 29 CFR 1910.1200, which gives employees the knowledge of how to lower their lifetime workplace dosage to cancer causing chemicals and chemical poisons they are potentially exposed to.
It is estimated that approximately 20,000 cancer deaths and 40,000 new cases of cancer each year in the U.S. are attributable to occupation.
Millions of U.S. workers are exposed to substances that have tested as carcinogens in animal studies. Less than 2% of chemicals in commerce have been tested for carcinogenicity.
Many workers are unaware of the potential hazards in their work environment, which makes them more vulnerable to injury.
