TO: BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
FROM: Richard J. Martinez, Executive Director
DATE: December 6, 1994
SUBJECT: HAZARD COMMUNICATION PROGRAM
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATIONS) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
ADOPT the proposed Hazard Communication Program required by CAL OSHA, as
recommended by the Advisory Housing Commission.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
None.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND:
CAL OSHA requires that, in order to provide employees with a safe working
environment, a Hazard Communication Program must be implemented and maintained.
For a number of years, the Housing Authority has required Material Safety Data
Sheets (MSDS) from its suppliers and these sheets have been made available at each
maintenace location, however, no definitive program is currently in place.
The attached program is designed to mitigate employee exposure to hazardous
chemical substances. All of these hazardous substances are industrial-oriented
chemicals used by maintenance personnel . Only three MSDS sheets are attached tq. the
Hazard Communication- Program, as the Housing Authority's Risk Management Committee
has been working for the past year to eliminate the use of hazardous substances by
Housing Authority maintenance personnel .
IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Should the Board of Commissioners elect to not adopt this Hazard Communication
Program, the Housing Authority would not be in compliance with OSHA requirements.

HAZARD COMMUNICATION PROGRAM
Our Hazard Communication Program is an important part of management's desire
to provide employees with a safe working environment. This program is designed
to mitigate exposures to employees to hazardous chemical substances. Most of
these hazardous substances by definition are industrial-oriented chemicals, mainly
used by maintenance personnel. Substances that do not come under the labeling
requirements of this program are listed under the heading, Exceptions, at the end
of this Program.
Hazardous Substance
Definition: Any substance which is a physical hazard or a health hazard or is
included in the List of Hazardous Substances prepared by the Director pursuant to
Labor Code section 6382.
Health Hazard
Definition: A substance for which there is statistically significant evidence based
on at least one study conducted in accordance with established scientific principles
that acute or chronic health effects may occur in exposed employees.
Physical Hazard
Definition: A substance for which there is scientifically valid evidence that it is a
combustible liquid, a compressed gas, explosive, flammable, an organic peroxide,
an oxidizer, pyrophoric, unstable (reactive) or water-reactive.
Responsible Person: Frank Sorisio, Housing Technical Officer
Our Responsible Person is responsible for the implementation and maintenance of
our Hazard Communication Program (HazCom).
Responsibilities include:
1. Coordination of HazCom with all departments to ensure that every facet of
the program is properly handled.
2. Coordination to ensure that all employees are adequately trained on their
"right-to-know," the specific hazardous substances with which they have to
work, and the communication of potential hazards of non-routine tasks.
3. Compliance with the acquisition and maintenance of Material Safety Data
Sheets.
4. Implementation of labelling procedures.
5. Communication of HazCom information to outside contractors.
Hazard Determination
We rely on the manufacturers' hazard determination as indicated by the
information given in their Material Safety Data Sheets.
Hazardous Substances Inventory
We have compiled and will continue to maintain an inventory of all hazardous
substances used in our facilities. Each department has a current inventory and
Material Safety Data Sheets that relate to the inventory for the specific
department.
-2-
Labels and Warnings
We ensure that all hazardous chemicals in the facility are properly labeled and
updated as necessary.
Labels are required to have the following information:
• Chemical identify
• Appropriate hazard warning
• Name and address of the manufacturer, importer or other responsible party
Management will refer to the corresponding MSDS to assist employees in
verifying label information.
Whenever an employee transfers chemicals from a labeled container to a
portable container, it is necessary to label the new container with the
chemical or common name (whichever is used on the list of hazardous
substances and the MSDS) and appropriate warnings including protective
measures to be taken when using the chemical.
Training
o
All employees working with, or who are potentially exposed to, hazardous
chemicals receive initial training on the HazCom standard and the safe use of
hazardous substances during their new employee orientation.
When a new hazardous substance is introduced, additional training is provided at
that time prior to employees working with the new substance.
-3-
In general, training includes the following information:
1. Summary of the HazCom standard to include employee right-to-know
information. According to Section 5194(h)(2)(G), "employees have the
right:
a. To personally receive information regarding hazardous substances to
which they are exposed.
b. For their physician or collective bargaining agent to receive
information regarding hazardous substances to which the employee
may be exposed.
C. Against discharge or other discrimination due to the employee's
exercise of the rights afforded pursuant to the provisions of the
Hazardous Substances Information and Training Act."
2. Review of any operations in the employee's work area where hazardous
substances are present or used.
3. Location and availability of the written hazard communication program
including the list(s) of hazardous substances and Material Safety Data
Sheets.
4. How to read labels and MSDSs.
5. Labeling requirements.
6. Chemical and physical properties of the hazardous materials.
7. Methods that can be used to detect the presence or release of these
chemicals (such as monitoring conducted, continuous monitoring, visual
appearance or odor of hazardous substances when being released, etc.)
8. Physical hazards of chemicals(potential for fire, etc.)
9. Health hazards, including signs and symptoms of exposure associated with
exposure to the chemicals and any medical condition known to be
aggravated by exposure.
10. Procedures to protect against hazards; personal protective equipment
required and proper use of this equipment; work practices and procedures
for emergency response.
-4-
We annually review the training program. Department Heads are asked for their
recommendations and their employees' input for improving the training program's
contents.
An annual refresher course is given to all employees who are directly or indirectly
involved in the use of hazardous substances.
Employees are retrained on a given hazardous substance whenever a new MSDS is
received and the new MSDS indicates significantly increased risks to, or measures
necessary to protect, employee health as compared to those stated on the
previously provided MSDS. Such training is conducted within 30 days of receipt
Of the new MSDS.
All training is fully documented and maintained for three years.
Non-Routine Tasks
If an employee is asked to perform a task that he or she normally does not perform
and the use of a hazardous substance is part of that task, we train the employee on
the specifics of that chemical prior to the commencement of work. Such training
includes the specific chemical training as discussed above under Training.
Contractors
We ensure that contractors or vendors are knowledgeable of the hazards of
substances that they may encounter in the normal course of their work. This
communication includes being informed of our labeling system, protective
measures, safe handling, and emergency actions to be taken in the event of an
exposure.
This communication is given to the contractor or vendor in written form and the
contractor or vendor signs that he/she has received this documentation.
-5-
In addition,prior to a contractor or vendor bringing chemicals on site, the
contractor or vendor must provide our management with the appropriate hazard
information regarding these substances, including the labels used and the
precautionary measures to be taken in working with these chemicals.
Additional Information
Managers, supervisors and employees may obtain further information regarding
chemicals used from their supervisors. -
Exceptions
The standards do not require labeling of the following substances under the
Hazard Communication Program because these substances fall under other
regulations:
1. Pesticides when subject to the labeling requirements issued under the
Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (EPA).
2. Foods, food additives, color additives, drugs or cosmetics that come under
the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act labeling requirements.
3. Any distilled spirits that are subject to the labeling requirements of the
Federal Alcohol Administration Act.
4. Any consumer product or hazardoussubstance defined by the Consumer
Product Safety Act and the Federal Hazardous Substances Act when they
are subject to the labeling requirements of those acts.
