(a) Definitions
(b) The safety coordinator shall be designated by letter, memorandum, job description or other notice. Duties must include responsibility for the four key elements of a safety program described in 380:40-1-22(3). Employers may designate more than one employee to assist by fulfilling specific functions, but the safety coordinator must have ultimate responsibility for implementing the safety programs. Additionally, this employee may be assigned other job duties deemed necessary by the employer which are not related to being the safety coordinator.
(c) Written safety programs shall be developed which are appropriate to the worksite(s) and the nature of hazards encountered by the employees and which meet requirements of the standards adopted in 380:40. This includes all required program reviews and documentation required by these standards.
(d) Appropriate safety training shall be provided to all employees, including management, no less than quarterly. Documentation of training shall include, but not be limited to, date(s), location, course information, course provider/trainer and a list of employees in attendance. Any additional information required by any specific standard shall also be included. Provisions must be made to arrange for make-up sessions for those employees who were not able to attend the scheduled training.
