ADOSH Consultant Landon Coleman

Every day, workplace injuries, illnesses and fatalities cause immeasurable pain and suffering to employees and their families. Recent estimates indicate that workplace injuries and illnesses cost our nation’s businesses $170 billion per year in wasteful and often preventable expenses.

Effective Safety and Health Management Systems (SHMS) have proven to be a decisive factor in reducing the extent and severity of work-related injuries and illnesses. SHMS will result in reduced injury-related costs.These savings, when properly administered, will exceed the cost of a workplace SHMS.

Students will learn about the Critical Elements of an Effective SHMS:

• management commitment and employee involvement;


• worksite analysis;


• hazard prevention and control;


• training for employees, supervisors and managers.

Students will be introduced to OSHA Resources to Assist Employers with SHMS        

•   “Small Business Handbook”


•   OSHA’s “Compliance Assistance Quick Start” Web page


•   OSHA’s “Hazard Awareness Advisor”  

Students will understand the qualifications for VPP and SHARP Status
