The COVID-19 pandemic has altered the landscape across our organization, including in environment, health and safety compliance. Preventing and managing exposures to the virus are on the top of our minds as EHS professionals. Additionally, we need to navigate the everyday regulatory requirements, while applying those requirements to new risks.

Participants will gain an understanding of preparedness planning components including tools for documenting a plan. An overview of facility decontamination considerations will be provided along with an overview of environmental and safety compliance issues to be considered.

This session from IMEC and Fehr Graham will address:

• Developing a “Pandemic Preparedness Plan”
• Planning and executing facility decontamination
• Managing environmental compliance activities and deadlines
• OSHA and CDC Considerations
