Hey All,<br>I just went to a day long seminar on Human Resources where they spent some time talking about OSHA.  From what they said at the seminar OSHA can come in at any time and audit your shop.  Apparently if they find violations they can fine the shit out of you.  Here are some things I learned and remember this was 20mins of a day long seminar, there are week long classes on this stuff.  This is a very short list.<br>

<ul><li>All chemicals and solvents should have warning labels on them clearly stating what&#39;s in them in <u>multiple languages</u></li><li>You should not keep aspirin, ibuprofen, neosporin or any other pharmaceuticals that someone could potentially have a reaction to in your medicine cabinet<u><br>

</u></li><li>Exit signs should be on all doors.</li><li>There should be no trip hazards. </li><li>Your staff needs to go through trainings on such things as how to use a ladder.</li></ul>This list is nowhere close to comprehensive but I&#39;m going to be looking into this more in the coming weeks and months.  We&#39;ve been around for almost seven years now never had a serious accident and I want to keep it that way.  <br>

<br>What are you guys doing to keep your shops safe and maybe even OSHA compliant?<br><br>Ride On!<br><br>-- <br>--<br>Rich Points<br><a href="http://communitycycles.org" target="_blank">http://communitycycles.org</a><span onmouseout="cancel = false; window.setTimeout(WRCHideContent, 1000); clearTimeout(showTimer);" onmouseover=" var self = this; showTimer = window.setTimeout(function(){WRCShowContent({&#39;rating&#39;:{&#39;value&#39;:-1,&#39;weight&#39;:-1},&#39;flags&#39;:{&#39;shopping&#39;:null,&#39;social&#39;:null,&#39;news&#39;:null,&#39;it&#39;:null,&#39;corporate&#39;:null,&#39;pornography&#39;:null,&#39;violence&#39;:null,&#39;gambling&#39;:null,&#39;drugs&#39;:null,&#39;illegal&#39;:null},&#39;single&#39;:true,&#39;ttl&#39;:null}, self.className)},600);" class="wrc0" style="padding-right:16px;width:16px;height:16px"></span><span style="padding-right:16px;width:16px;height:16px"></span><br>
