Webinar - Update from OSHA on the Proposed Emergency Response Standard

On February 5, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) published the proposed new Emergency Response Standard, and the public has until June 21 to provide comments. If adopted as is, this proposed standard would bring immense challenges to volunteer departments, and some may even be forced to shut down. It is important that the volunteer fire and emergency service understand how this rule would impact them and provide their comments to OSHA before June 21. This NVFC presentation will allow you to hear directly from OSHA staff about how volunteers would be impacted by this standard and what you can do to make your voice heard.

Please note: Due to this being a pending federal rulemaking, the presenters from OSHA will not be able to take comments on the proposed standard. They will only be able to provide clarifications on the content of notice of proposed rulemaking or guidance on where and how to submit a public comment.

Presenters:
Mark Hagemann – Director, Office of Safety Systems, Directorate of Standards and Guidance, OSHA
Bill Hamilton – Fire Protection Engineer, Office of Safety Systems, Directorate of Standards and Guidance, OSHA
