Act, 1994. &

7 Regulations

OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH ACT, OSHA 1994

• Seven regulations and two orders

• Philosophy and guiding principal

• Responsibilities to ensure safety and health at the workplace lies to those who create the risk and on those who work with the risk

• Key features : self-regulation, consultative approach, employees participation and broad range of working population

OSH LEGISLATION APPROACH

Type of Standards Description Examples

1.Prescription Tell the duty holders precisely what preventive

measures to take and how to make a goal

FMA, 1967

2. Principle Based Tell the duties holder general duties to ensure

health and safety at work so far as is reasonably

practicable

General duties

under OSHA 1994

3. Performance Based Specify the outcome of the OSH improvements

of the desire level of the performance but leave

the concrete measures to achieve this open for

the duty holder to adapt to local circumstances

Exposure standards

of chemicals under

USECHH, 2000

4. Process Based Identify a particular process, or series of steps

to be followed in the pursuit of managing a

specific hazards, or OSH in general .

Often used when the regulator has difficulty

specifying a goal or outcome but has

confidence the risk of injury/diseases will be

reduced if particular steps are followed

ASSESSMENT

STEPS

1.INTRODUCTION

• To help the employer to carry out a simple

assessment on the use of chemicals

hazardous to health at the workplace

• To meet duties under USECHH.

Solid- level of

dustiness

- Use Table 3.4

5. Selection of control approach- Use Table 3.6

6. Selection of task specific control

guidance sheet - Use Table 3.8

2. Identify chemical

Liquid- to decide

volatility

- Use Table 3.5a or

3.5b or Figure 3.1

6. Select control guidance sheets (CGS) (P100,

P101, P102, P103, P104, P105, P106) - Use

Table 3.9

4. Scale of use - Use Table 3.3

1. Gather Information

Get Hazard Group-Use

Table 3.1 and Table 3.2

3. Get R-Phrase or H-Code

8. Report Writing & Record

CONCLUSIONS

• OSHA a d it s Regulatio s ha i g ade uate ge e al provisions for managing chemicals in the workplace.

• ICOP & Guidelines are require to supplement general

provisions stated in the Act and Regulations.

• Malaysia government is in the process of further

strengthening the chemical management system in the

country in order to improve safety, health, environment,

security in this aspect and meet very demanding

international obligations.
