TechneTrain publishes OSHA compliance manual

TechneTrain, an OSHA training and support firm, recently published its 2005 Federal OSHA Compliance Manual for the Nursery and Landscape Industry.

The manual helps landscape professionals learn which regulations apply to the industry and how to conform effectively. TechneTrain filtered out passages that are not relevant to the industry and translated federal regulations into every day language.

Topics include: OSHA penalty structure and inspections, recordkeeping requirements, machine guarding and lawnmower safety, vehicle hazards and crew transportation, hazard communication, noise and hearing conservation, outdoor work safety, personal protective equipment, electrical safety, blood borne pathogens and universal precautions.

The manual costs $185 and can be purchased online. For more information call 800/852-8314 or e-mail Shannon DeCamp at shannon_decamp@tencon.net.
