OSHA Hazard Communication (HazCom) Program for Stone and Quartz Fabricators: A Practical Guide to Chemical Safety and Compliance in the Shop and Field

By Frederick M Hueston

The OSHA Hazard Communication Program for Stone and Quartz Fabricators is a complete, ready-to-use guide for creating and maintaining a safe, compliant shop environment. Written specifically for fabricators, installers, and restoration professionals, this book walks you through every part of a working HazCom program-from chemical inventories and SDS management to training, labeling, and spill response.

Unlike generic OSHA manuals that collect dust on a shelf, this one was written by someone who's spent decades in the stone trade. It's built around real-world shop conditions: the adhesives, sealers, epoxies, and dusts you deal with every day. You'll learn how to document chemical use, train your team, and avoid the most common OSHA violations that trip up even experienced fabricators.

Each chapter breaks down the standard in plain language, with sample forms, checklists, and templates you can customize for your own operation. The book also includes complete appendices with examples of a written HazCom program, training records, inventory sheets, and spill response forms.

Although this manual was developed for stone and quartz fabrication shops, it's just as valuable for restoration contractors, tile installers, and anyone working with stone, concrete, or engineered materials. If your crew mixes chemicals, cuts or polishes stone, or applies sealers and adhesives, this program applies to you too.

Compliance is only half the goal, the real purpose is to build a culture of safety and accountability that keeps everyone healthy and the business running strong.
