... must provide records promptly, generally within 15 working days. They must provide a date for release of the information and an explanation of the delays should it take longer to process the request. Employers are to inform their workers initially and at least annually of their rights to access to medical and exposure records. OSHA may obtain personal medical records promptly without the written consent of the subject employees, but will adhere to strict data controls to protect confidentiality. RECORDS AND RETENTION RATES-The rule covers records of employee exposure to toxic substances and harmful physical agents and employee personal medical records. Exposure records must be maintained for 30 years and medical records for the duration of employment, plus 30 years. First aid records and experimental toxicological research records are excluded from the 30-year retention requirements. If a company maintains a chemical inventory or set of material safety data sheets, it need not retain production records, shipping records, invoices, batch cards, or other similar documents. Biological monitoring results, except those pertaining to alcohol or drugs, are to be retained, but records created in anticipation of litigation (Workers' Compensation examinations, for example) need not be. Personal medical records for short-term employees (less than one year) do not have to be retained if they are provided to the employee on termination. Employers need not copy X-rays and may require viewing on site or at some other suitable location. All X-rays, except chest X-rays, may be microfilmed for records storage. TOXIC SUBSTANCES-Toxic substances and harmful agents include any material listed in the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) Registry ...

... ) be in good condition More information on eye protection can be found later in this article. EAR PROTECTION Exposure to loud noise can cause irreversible hearing loss or impairment. It can also create physical and psychological stress, to say nothing of making you nuts. Preformed or molded ear plugs should be individually fitted by a professional. Waxed cotton, foam, or Fiberglas wool earplugs are self-forming. Disposable earplugs should be used once and thrown away; non-disposable ones should be cleaned after each use or they'll become what scientists call very yucky. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has promulgated a final rule on requirements for a hearing conservation program. Information on the program is available from the closest OSHA office. ARM AND HAND PROTECTION Burns, cuts, electrical shock, amputation, and absorption of chemicals are not fun. They are also examples of hazards associated with arm and hand injuries. A wide assortment of gloves, hand pads, sleeves, and wristlets is available for protection from these hazards. The devices should be selected to fit the specific task. Rubber is considered the best material for insulating gloves and sleeves, and must conform to ANSI standards (copies of which are available from ANSI, 1430 Broadway, New York, NY 10018) . TORSO PROTECTION There's no part of your anatomy you want to protect more than the torso, because without it, you're nothing. Many hazards can threaten the torso: heat, splashes from hot metals and liquids, impacts, cuts, acids, and radiation. A variety of protective clothing is available: vests, jackets, aprons, ...

... it, the new item pushes out a previous, less-relevant one. Imagine aiming a fire hose at a teacup. All the information coming at you (TV, radio, Web pages, e-mails, newspapers, billboards, direct mail, fliers, music, plus what your kid swapped her peanut butter and jelly sandwich for at school) is the water consistently and vigorously trained on the teacup — a.k.a. your brain, or more specifically, your electrical memory. Some of the water stays in the teacup; the rest spills out. Relevance determines which "water drops" stay in. You store in electrical memory only the information that's important to you at a certain moment. Once you get a message to stay inside the teacup, the human computer works on transferring it from electrical to chemical memory. Chemical memory is long-term, stored memory: All the things that you can remember. It's like your computer's hard disk. If you need to store your data so you can get it back, you save it to the hard disk before you power down your computer. Unlike the ephemeral RAM of electrical memory, chemical memory is the repository of "known information" from the hard drive of the human computer. For businesses, chemical memory means "top of mind awareness," being the company that your customers think of first and feel best about whenever they need your products or whenever your product category is named. In other words, it's branding . Advertisers try to "whip people into action" with the urgency of a limited-time offer. They can be sure at best ...
