New Safety Regulations for Handling Liquid Coatings Aim to Reduce Workplace Hazards

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has introduced updated guidelines for handling liquid coatings in manufacturing facilities. These rules emphasize proper ventilation, protective gear, and rigorous training programs to mitigate risks associated with volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Liquid coatings, which are widely used in automotive, construction, and consumer goods industries, pose significant health risks if not handled correctly. Employers are now required to install proper extraction systems and monitor air quality levels. Industry experts believe that these regulations will lead to safer work environments and help reduce accidents.
