Dina Siegel, IHSTTT Chair Los Alamos National Laboratory
May 23, 2016

2. The WSH Technical SubGroup is composed of five Technical Task Groups (TTGs)
Electrical Safety (ES) - Heath Garrison, NREL
Industrial Hygiene & Safety (IHS) - Dina Siegel, LANL
(now includes the former Chemical Safety and Lifecycle Management TTG)
Radiation Protection (RP) – Quang Le, LBNL
Laser Safety (LS) - Mike Woods, SLAC NAL
Occupational Medicine (OM) - Jamie Stalker, ANL
DOE Liaison: Pat Worthington, DOE-HQ, AU-10
Need to know the total number of participating companies and approximate number of folks involved in each of the subgroups as well as the number of participants in the electrical workshop and LSO workshop

4. Industrial Hygiene and Safety TTG Approximately 80 members from 20 sites/companies DOE POC: David Weitzman, DOE HQ, AU-11
Need to know the total number of participating companies and approximate number of folks involved in each of the subgroups as well as the number of participants in the electrical workshop and LSO workshop

5. Industrial Hygiene and Safety TTG Activities
Updated DOE-HDBK Chemical Management Volume 3 of 3 (September 30, 2016)
Intended for DOE facilities and external entities.
Updated content (e.g., NFPA 400, new HazCom requirements, new definitions), uniform chapter format, quick source references and documents.
Develop a listing and description of data elements for exposure assessment that should be documented in formal records and communicated to workers and management (October 1, 2016)
Intended for contractor industrial hygiene staff and subtier contractors with a goal of reporting consistency across the DOE complex. Reports include those for employees and management.
Listing and description of data elements.
Need to know the total number of participating companies and approximate number of folks involved in each of the subgroups as well as the number of participants in the electrical workshop and LSO workshop

6. Industrial Hygiene and Safety TTG Activities, continued
Guidance on the application of physical agent TLVs (i.e. ergonomic, heat stress,...) (September 15, 2016)
Ergonomic
Intended for contractor ergonomists/industrial hygienists and workforce.
Goal is to clarify ACGIH Threshold Limit Value (TLV) wording for lifting, and provide guidance for types of lifting not explicitly covered.
Training and implementation materials for an implementing Lifting TLV at DOE/NNSA sites.
Heat Stress
Intended for contractor industrial hygienists and workforce with the goal of successful ACGIH Threshold Limit Value (TLV) heat stress implementation.
Identification of requirements and changes in ACGIH Heat Stress TLV.
Information on common terminology or activities (e.g. boiler maintenance).
Identify low risk to high risk work activities.
Gather control information for workers.
Perform “Detailed Analysis” for select work activities.
Identify physiological monitoring techniques / guidance material.

7. Industrial Hygiene and Safety TTG Activities, continued
Convert RFID best practices white paper to technical guidance document
Intended for DOE facilities and external entities with similar chemical inventory reconciliation needs.
Includes best practices/lessons learned on security
Coordinating efforts with Occupational Medicine TTG:
Benchmark heat stress hazard control and provide best practice recommendations
Benchmark heavy lifting limit best practices
Develop Best Practices for Improved IHS/OM Coordination (September 15, 2016)

8. Industrial Hygiene and Safety TTG Activities, continued
Industrial Safety
Strategies for choosing PPE
Cross training Safety and IH practitioners
Explore making site procedures available on the web
Establish a central location to locate safety shares.
Identifying different types of leading indicator programs within and outside the Complex
Strategies for choosing PPE
When trying to select PPE for protection from multiple hazards, what is your procedure/process
Cross training Safety and IH practitioners
Are sites cross training practitioners so that work can be covered by one person with skills in both disciplines.
Should site procedures be available for use on an accessible (not secure) webpage.
Would allow sites across the complex to easily look at other sites procedures and help them in the developing or review process.
This is a potential cost savings for DOE
Establish a central location to locate safety shares.
One thought is the EFCOG webpage.
Having a database with safety shares would be helpful, not only to the S&H practitioners but to all employees seeking ideas for safety shares.
Identifying different types of leading indicator programs within and outside the Complex
Providing the reader with a process/procedure/program that is implementable
Assist the reader in developing statistical models and create dashboards for management.

9. Industrial Hygiene and Safety TTG Activities, continued
Best Practices in Progress
Occupational Health/Industrial Hygiene Coordination
RFID Best Practices Document
Non-invasive Physiological Monitoring for Heat Stress
Sampling Concrete for ACM
Safety Management of 3D Printers
Exposure Monitoring for Silica
Pressure Control Permitting
