NFPA 70e Standard Updates

E-Hazard | Zarheer Jooma

Electrical fatalities in the United States have plateaued over the past decade, however, the annual number of worker deaths from electrical incidents is unacceptably high. Although OSHA provides substantial safety requirements, the fatality statistics underscore the inadequacy of “compliance” as a safety driver.

This is especially concerning in light of the considerable advances in PPE, electrical hazard reduction efforts, and increased worker training in the same time frame.

Zarheer Jooma (M.S., P.E., and partner at e-Hazard) explains the importance of changing from a “compliance” mindset to a “safety culture” mindset.
