Program Overview: 

Arc flash incidents remain among the most catastrophic electrical hazards in workplaces—especially in hospitals, facilities, and maintenance operations where energized equipment is common. With OSHA's 2024 publication Protecting Employees from Electric-Arc Flash Hazards (OSHA 4472-11), expectations for hazard identification, PPE documentation, and training verification are clearer than ever.

This one-hour session will walk participants through OSHA's latest recommendations, highlight what remains mandatory under current standards, and outline how these updates affect your electrical safety program.  You'll learn how to integrate arc-flash prevention into your organization's overall safety and health system, align with NFPA 70E best practices, and prepare your facility for compliance reviews or inspections.  

Learning Objectives: 

By the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:

• Differentiate between OSHA's enforceable arc-flash requirements and the new recommendations in the 2024 guidance.
• Integrate arc-flash prevention measures into broader safety and health programs, including employee participation and documentation.
• Evaluate their facility's current program and maintenance practices to ensure continued compliance and risk reduction.
