W.W. Grainger has launched a new occupational health and safety catalog that reflects the recent doubling of its safety offering, including more safety footwear, clothing, and training and reference materials.

Offered in print and electronic format , the catalog is organized by key safety issues and Occupational Safety & Health Administration standards.

"While companies make an honest effort to comply with OSHA regulations, our customers tell us that it isn't always easy to keep things up to date," Deb Oler, vice president, Grainger [Industrial Supply] Brand said in a statement announcing the catalog. "As the largest distributor of safety supplies, Grainger provides the expertise, resources and products needed to help businesses and institutions maintain regulatory compliance, reduce accident and injury rates, and decrease operating costs."

In addition to the catalog, Grainger also offers free "On the Job" webinars featuring third-party industry experts who speak on a variety of safety topics, including arc flash, lockout/tagout, and fall protection. For the webinar schedule and archives, go to www.grainger.com/onthejob.
