Division of State Fire Marshal

Chapter:

FIREFIGHTER EMPLOYMENT STANDARDS

Overview

RULE:

69A-62.004

Uniform Minimum Firefighter Employment Standards: Presence of Toxic Substances

PURPOSE:

The purpose of the rule amendment is to allow flexibility in maintaining current notices of toxic substances in the workplace, without the need for constant rule amendment.

SUMMARY:

The rule sets forth requirements that firefighter employers must meet when toxic substances are used or stored in the workplace. The amendment redacts many pages of toxic substances that were adopted in 2001, and replaces them with a definition, thus providing the employer the flexibility to recognize newly identified toxic substances without the need to wait for the rule to be updated.
