California Freight Safety Manual and I1PP <br /> Hazardous Materials and Chemicals <br /> Hazard Communication Program <br /> Introduction <br /> It is the policy of California Freight that the first consideration of work shall be the protection of <br /> the safety and health of all employees. We have developed this Hazard Communication <br /> Program to ensure that all employees receive adequate information about the possible hazards <br /> that may result from the various materials used in our operations. This Hazard Communication <br /> Program will be monitored by Safety Coordinator who will be responsible for ensuring that all <br /> facets of the program are carried out, and that the program is effective. <br /> Our program consists of the following elements: <br /> 1. Hazardous material inventory. <br /> 2. Collection and maintenance of Safety Data Sheets. <br /> 3. Container labeling. <br /> 4. Employee training. <br /> The following items are not required to be included in the program and are therefore omitted: <br /> • Foods, drugs, cosmetics or tobacco. <br /> • Untreated wood products. <br /> • Hazardous waste. <br /> • Consumer products packaged for sale to and use by the general public, provided that our <br /> exposure is not significantly greater than typical consumer exposure. <br /> Hazardous Material Inventory <br /> Safety Coordinator maintains a list of all hazardous materials used in our operations. This list <br /> contains the name of the product, the type of product (solvent, adhesive etc.) and the name <br /> and address of the manufacturer. <br /> Safety Data Sheets (SDS) <br /> Copies of SDS for all hazardous substances to which our employees may be exposed will be <br /> kept in a binder in the office at 805 S. Locust Ave, Ripon, CA 95366. These SDS are available to <br /> all employees, at all times, upon request. Copies of the most commonly used products will <br /> also be kept by the Supervisor at the work site. <br /> Safety Coordinator will be responsible for reviewing incoming SDS for new and significant <br /> health/safety information. They will ensure that any new information is passed on to the <br /> affected employees. <br /> Effective January 1,2019 Page 25 <br />
