| Resumen |
Electricity has long been recognized as a serious workplace hazard, exposing employees to electric shock, electrocution, burns, fires and explosions. In 1999 for example, 278 workers died from electrocutions at work, accounting for almost five percent of all on-the-job fatalities that year in the United States. This safety guide on controlling electrical hazards addresses the following topics: OSHA electrical safety standards; basic facts about electricity (flow through conductors and through water, causes of shocks, effects of shocks on the body); protection against electrical hazards (types of insulators, guarding, grounding); training of personnel; programmes and services proposed by OSHA. |
