OSHA Training Requirements questions for the CSP

Question 1

A fabrication shop has used the same solvent-based cleaners for years, and all employees were trained on them at hire. The purchasing manager switches to a new cleaner that contains a chemical with a hazard (carcinogenicity) the employees have never been trained about. What does the hazard communication standard require?

1. ATraining is required only if the new cleaner is flammable
2. BTraining is required only at the next annual refresher session
3. CNo additional training is needed as long as the safety data sheet for the new cleaner is kept in the binder
4. DTraining on the new hazard is required when the new chemical hazard is introduced into the work area, because the employees have not previously been trained about it

Question 2

A warehouse hires a forklift operator who holds a training record from a previous employer. The record covers the required training topics for sit-down counterbalanced trucks, which is the same type of truck the new employer uses. The new site's working conditions are similar to those at the old one. The new employer observes the operator on the job and evaluates him as competent to operate the truck safely. What does the standard require regarding training in those previously covered topics?

1. ANo additional training in those topics is required, because the prior training fits the truck and conditions and the operator was evaluated and found competent
2. BRepeat all of the topics in full, because training from a different employer is never recognized
3. CRepeat only the classroom portion of each topic, because the evaluation covers only practical skills
4. DRepeat the topics at the next three-year evaluation, but the operator may not operate trucks until then
