Recordkeeping standard Many companies must keep OSHA records on injuries and illnesses. But, have you ever ask yourself do I have to call OSHA if we have a workplace accident? Yes, no, maybe?

We will discuss those changes and provide answers to all of your questions. 90 minutes June 6; 9:00am - 12:00pm at the CEC To register please call the CEC at 814-781-3437 Fall Protection Mark Harmon the OSHA Compliance Assistance Specialist (CAS) from the Erie Area Office will present information about the new 1910.

The rule incorporates advances in technology, industry best practices, and national consensus standards to provide effective worker protection. 90 minutes Control of Hazardous Energy (LOTO) This OSHA standard is applicable to most types of business and operations. However, we still find companies that are not controlling hazardous energy while performing servicing and maintenance of machines and equipment. Does my company need a written LOTO program with energy control procedures? Do we have to train employees on how to lock-out equipment? These are questions we will answer. 90 minutes August 16; 9:00am - 12:00pm at the CEC To register please call the CEC at 814-781-3437
Training meets the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture requirements for the Food Employee Certification Act.
The ServSafe® course, conducted by Penn State Extension, is for individuals preparing for the exam. After attending the ServSafe® class(es) and passing the proctored, multiple-choice exam with a score of 75% or higher, participants will receive a ServSafe® certificate, which meets the PDA requirement for food safety certification. To receive and maintain certification, all individuals are required to pass a certification exam every five (5) years. Course fee covers cost of the most recent edition of the ServSafe® Manager book, exam answer sheet, exam, and learning materials. A revision to Section 1-201.12(A) and 2-102.20 (B) of the FDA Food Code now requires the Person in Charge (PIC) to be a Certified Food Protection Manager (CFPM). As required by the Pennsylvania Food Employee Certification Act, the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture will begin the process of implementing regulations to reflect the FDA Food Code changes concerning Food Protection Manager Certification requirements. Considering the regulatory process, the new requirement to certify the Person in Charge as a CFPM will likely become effective sometime in 2020. Who is this for?
