Bridge Lead Removal and General Site Safety

Purpose

The objective of this program is to provide the employees of (contractor's name and site location) site-specific information and training to ensure that the work is completed in a safe and efficient manner and that all workers will be able to recognize and avoid hazards that can lead to injuries or fatalities.

This program is general in nature and is composed of the minimum requirements of a site-specific/orientation program for working on bridges containing lead-coated surfaces. It is recommended that additional material be included and taught to describe the specific locations where work will take place and to list all of the primers, paints, and handling instructions.
