WASHINGTON – The American Chemistry Council (ACC) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) have signed the renewal of the ACC OSHA Alliance, which continues to foster safer and more healthful American workplaces operating with diisocyanate chemicals along the polyurethane value chain. Three groups from ACC continue to lead the work with OSHA: the Center for the Polyurethanes Industry (CPI), the Diisocyanates (DII) and Aliphatic Diisocyanates (ADI) panels.
The alliance has two primary goals: raising awareness of OSHA’s national rulemaking and initiatives, the alliance, and its goals through outreach and communication efforts; and conducting training to educate employers, workers and OSHA officials on the safe use and handling of diisocyanates in the polyurethanes value chain.
