As many of you are aware, OSHA is working on a complete overhaul to the decades old 29 CFR 1910.156 Fire Brigade Standard. While many of the proposed changes would be helpful and improve the safety of emergency responders, some could prove burdensome, and in some cases impossible, for volunteer fire and emergency service departments to comply with. The proposal has certainly created quite a buzz within the fire service. Joining me on this very important and informative episode will be Dave Denniston who will take the time to carefully outline what this fuss is all about and point out the good, as well as explain some of the concerns. Dave has spent months researching and discussing the proposed new standard, and is definitely the "go to guy" to talk about this topic.
