NFPA 70E: Are You Compliant, or Safe?

Wednesday, March 13, 2019 2:00pm - 3:00pm EDT  
Host: AIHA
By: Derek Sang, Technical Training Manager, QSSP, IASHEP, Bulwark Protection

Why should we be concerned with electrical safety? Though not the leading cause of on-the-job injuries, electrical hazards are disproportionately dangerous and costly. And the cost of ignoring electrical safety is far greater.

In this webinar, you’ll gain insights into NFPA 70E 2018 Arc Flash PPE requirements. You’ll learn there is a difference between being compliant and being safe: one is required, and the other is your responsibility.

You’ll learn:
- How to choose the right PPE for the job
- Arc flash and electrical safety facts
- Verifying protection
