For the first time in history, OSHA is cracking down on silica exposure beyond a narrow section of the construction industry.

Maritime industry employers and port operators are now required to assess their sites for silica dust and take required positive dust control actions.

All companies in Maritime Industry with employees who might be exposed to respirable crystalline silica must take action.

This applies to port terminal operators, shipping and bulk handling companies, longshoremen employers, bulk storage facilities, and many more.
