All About ANSI Standards

Our member survey this past summer indicated that you wanted a program on ANSI standards. Well, here it is!! Tim Fisher – probably one of the most conversant people in ANSI standards is traveling from our National Headquarters in suburban Chicago to discuss ANSI Standards: How they are promulgated, who promulgates them, when do we need to comply, how OSHA has incorporated them into regulations, how OSHA uses them to cite employers (especially 5a1 citations), how ASSE is involved in these standards, how YOU can be involved in the development of the standards, and much more.
