Nothing causes more confusion and stirs more debate than understanding regulatory compliance with regard to electrical hazards. What does OSHA require? Is arc flash personal protective equipment (PPE) required by law? Should you follow the NFPA standard 70E, or is something additional required?

You want to do the right thing and protect your workers from electrical hazards, but especially in this economy, no employer wants to make unnecessary expenditures.

Join us on July 14 for an in-depth audio conference—specifically for California employers—designed to help you decipher the NFPA standard 70E and learn how to protect your employees from arc flash. Bring your managers along as we explain what you need to do to be in compliance. You'll learn:

• How to separate compliance fact from fiction in this area
• What both OSHA and NFPA require
• How to assess your arc flash and shock hazard levels
• The essentials of an electrical safety policy and program
• Why lockout-tagout procedures are an essential first line of defense
• How to identify the level of arc flash hazard and apply the NFPA 70E standard
• How the NFPA 70E tables can help you source the right PPE and insulated tools for the job
• How to evaluate your electrical safety procedures and make any necessary changes
