I have been researching OSHA Laser Safety Requirements as they pertain
to servicing of laser products. I reviewed OSHA PUB 8.1-7: Guidelines
for Laser Safety and Hazard Assessment, but I have not been able to
find specific references in the CFR. I also have a copy of ANSI
Z136.1.
Where, if at all, is the OSHA PUB 8.1-7 referenced in the CFR?
I am looking for the regulations (not guidelines) that mandate the
following:
1) Laser Safety Training
2) Assignment of a LSO
3) Medical Surveillance (optometrist / ophthalmologist)
I would greatly appreciate any information regarding this issue.
Thanks in advance.
