OSHA

NEW! On January 29, 2021, OSHA released a guideline titled, Protecting Workers: Guidance on Mitigating and Preventing the Spread of COVID-19 in the Workplace. All employers must have a COVID-19 Prevention Program in place. Endorsed Provider partner Certified Satefty Training has developed a guide to help you understand how to comply with this new guidance.

Protect your employees and your business by complying with safety and health-related workplace practices, including compliance with OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens, Formaldehyde, and Hazardous Materials Standards.

Did you know that according to OSHA regulations, nearly every employer - including funeral homes - is required to have an Emergency Action Plan (EAP)? An EAP establishes the steps that employees should take to respond to an emergency in the workplace.

NFDA has developed a comprehensive template with accompanying instructions to help you create an EAP for your funeral home. Get started today:

OSHA Compliance Programs
