Occupational safety personnel shall demonstrate the ability to perform occupational

safety trend analyses.

Supporting Knowledge and/or Skills

a. Discuss key processes used in operation trending, analysis, post-operation activity

information, and their relationships to occupational safety activities.

b. Determine what type of assessment should be performed and in what areas using an

actual list of performance indicators.

Occupational safety personnel shall demonstrate expert-level knowledge of safety

considerations associated with industrial operations.

Supporting Knowledge and/or Skills

a. Describe common industrial operations (e.g., maintenance, production, testing,

inspection, setup [both facility and equipment]) and related activities (e.g., welding,

material handling, machining, cleaning, and coating), including the safety interfaces

necessary to protect workers and safely perform work.

b. Describe safety considerations associated with placement of operations and equipment

and structural support for equipment).

c. Outline point of operation hazards associated with workplace equipment and describe

appropriate machine guarding principles.

d. Describe common concerns and associated control measures that must be addressed in

the workplace environment (e.g., noise, thermal burn hazards, heat stress, vibration, eye

hazards, workplace illumination, and lasers).
