SAFETY REMINDER Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Carbon monoxide poisoning is more common during the winter months as people increase their use of heating devices. Any living or work area that is heated with a gas or wood-burning appliance that is not properly maintained (or is in a space that is not properly ventilated) is susceptible to carbon monoxide poisoning. Carbon monoxide is known as “the silent killer” because it can’t be seen or smelled. That is why it is so important to recognize the early symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning: Nausea Headaches Dizziness Sore throat/cough Abdominal pain These early-indicator symptoms should not be ignored. A quick test to see if someone with symptoms is experiencing carbon monoxide poisoning is to get them outside into the fresh air—symptoms should begin to disappear once outside.

October Is National Protect Your Hearing Month Noise-induced hearing loss is the most common type of hearing loss. It happens when you’re exposed to a noise that is too loud and that lasts too long. Exposure to sounds 85 decibels (dB) and above can damage your hearing. OSHA regulations begin at this level. The chart below shows how common construction noises can impact your hearing. This type of hearing loss is permanent. It’s important for workers to protect their hearing whenever possible on a job site. Protect Your Hearing Month is a great opportunity to discuss noise-induced hearing loss, loud areas or equipment workers encounter, and best practices for different types of hearing protection.

National Concussion Awareness Day Is September 16 Up to 50% of concussions go undiagnosed. It’s not uncommon for people to suffer from a concussion and carry on with their regular activities like going to work. They don’t realize that another bump on the head could result in second impact syndrome, which could be fatal or lead to permanent brain damage. Concussion symptoms don’t always show up right away following an injury. It may be days or weeks before symptoms become apparent. Even then, many people don’t take their symptoms as seriously as they should, or mistake them for other conditions. Know the common symptoms of a concussion: Headache Irritability Slowed reaction time Drowsiness Fog-like state/inability to pay attention Difficulty remembering Sensitivity to light or noise Blurred vision Dizziness Nausea & vomiting Loss of consciousness Information courtesy of:
