For construction workers and supervisors who may be exposed to cadmium: where it is found, the PEL and action level, exposure monitoring, regulated areas, controls, respirators and protective clothing, hygiene and housekeeping, medical surveillance and training.
What this certificate covers
This certificate records completion of awareness training based on OSHA 29 CFR 1926.1127. It is not an OSHA card or license, it does not make anyone a competent person under the cadmium standard, and it does not by itself meet the training requirements of 29 CFR 1926.1127(m)(4). Your employer must still train each employee who is potentially exposed to cadmium, prior to or at the time of initial assignment to a job involving potential exposure to cadmium and at least annually thereafter, in a training program that is understandable to the employee and informs each employee of the items listed in 29 CFR 1926.1127(m)(4)(iii), including the quantity, location, manner of use, release, and storage of cadmium in the workplace and the engineering controls and work practices associated with the employee's job assignment. Your employer must also train you in accordance with the Hazard Communication Standard as required by 29 CFR 1926.1127(m)(1), and provide medical surveillance where 29 CFR 1926.1127(l) requires it.
