"MARCOM's ""The ANSI Material Safety Data Sheet"" Interactive CD-ROM Course is designed to help facilities comply with OSHA's HAZWOPER regulation (29 CFR 1910.120). As part of these regulations, there are varying requirements for employee training, depending on an employee's specific level of involvement with hazardous materials. The course educates employees about the ANSI MSDS format and reviews how the information in an MSDS can help them work safely with potentially hazardous chemicals. Hazardous materials and waste are part of many work situations, and can be found on many types of job sites. It is so important that employees know how to recognize these potentially dangerous substances, as well as how to handle and dispose of them properly, that OSHA mandates that anyone working with these substances receive comprehensive training in this area. Areas covered in the course include the importance of the MSDS, the MSDS's role in the Hazard Communication Standard, advantages of the ANSI format, four basic questions the ANSI MSDS answers: –What is the material and what are its hazards? –What should I do if a problem occurs? –What precautions should I take when working with this material? –Is there anything else I should know about this substance? a review of the Sections in the ANSI Material Safety Data Sheet and more. Using a powerful combination of audio, full-motion video, text and colorful graphics, this course provides the most cost-effective safety and regulatory compliance training available today. The course is divided into a number of logical sections so information is easily understood... and retained. Also designed with the training manager in mind, all courses in the Interactive CD-ROM Training Library include a learning management system (at no additional cost). Using this system, trainers can set up ""Pre"" and ""Post"" tests... establish log-in procedures... even define and set up curriculum for various job classes. The system also collects and organizes employee performance information through a powerful relational database, which can generate a number of record-keeping and tracking reports... and has a database ""import/export"" feature, which allows information to be transferred to and from an external database (such as a company's personnel database). The course is one of over 100 titles currently available in the Interactive CD-ROM Training Library."
