Silica Exposure Control
Ten steps covering task identification, the PEL and Action Level and what each triggers, Table 1 as a compliance safe harbour, water delivery adequacy, HEPA dust collection requirements, respiratory protection duration thresholds, housekeeping prohibitions, medical surveillance triggers, the written Exposure Control Plan, and the competent person role — with coached interactive exercises, a six-question quiz, and three case studies drawn from enforcement outcomes.
A printable completion record is generated at the end. Estimated time: 20–25 minutes. Nothing is stored on our servers.

Who needs this
Anyone who cuts, grinds, drills, or crushes concrete, block, brick, mortar, stone, or engineered stone. The standard is task-based, not trade-based — an electrician coring a slab is performing a Table 1 task and needs the same controls as a concrete cutter.
