2 July 2017 The 100 Deadliest Days of Driving Memorial Day weekend kicked off the beginning of what is known as the 100 Deadliest Days of driving for teenagers. There is no better time to have a conversation about the five potentially deadly driving behaviors that many young drivers take part in every day. Drowsy Driving A recent survey found one-third of teens drive while they re drowsy, and nearly one in 10 have fallen asleep at the wheel while driving. Distracted Driving The National Safety Council s annual injury and fatality report found that the use of cellphones causes 26% of the nation s car crashes. Aggressive Driving According to AAA, at least 1,500 people are injured or killed every year in the U.S. on average as a result of aggressive driving. Impaired Driving Alcohol is involved in one-third of all traffic fatalities in the U.S. That s about 10,000 lives lost every year. Not Buckling Up In 2016, of the 280 traffic fatalities in Utah, 86 of those individuals were not buckled up. If you d like to do more than talk to your teenager about safe driving behavior, consider signing them up for a young driver defensive driving course. Alive at 25 is a program taught at the Utah Safety Council that focuses on teen drivers 15 to 24 years of age. The overall goal of the course is to assist young drivers in recognizing the risks they face and help focus on their own driving behaviors, so they can take responsibility and adopt safer driving practices.

3 July 2017 Crystalline Silica Standard Compliance Extension Last year, OSHA came out with a new standard for Crystalline Silica, a naturally-occurring mineral compound found in concrete. As a reminder, the standard: Established a lower PEL for crystalline silica Requires employers to use engineering controls or provide respirators if engineering controls aren t enough Requires employers to develop a written exposure control plan Offers medical exams and training to highly exposed workers (see OSHA.gov for full list of revisions and requirements) A few months ago, OSHA announced that the enforcement of the crystalline silica standard will now begin September 23, 2017 instead of June 23, It is still encouraged that employers continue taking the steps to come into compliance with this new standard, as September is coming quickly. Even with a few extra months to prepare, don t procrastinate until it s too late! Questions? Need help incorporating the new Silica Standards? We re here to help.
