Using engaging videos and real-world examples, this course explains how breathing in fine silica dust can damage the lungs and lead to serious diseases such as silicosis. Learners will explore the history of silica hazards, how to identify silica-containing materials, and the importance of using engineering and administrative controls to prevent exposure. The training also reviews OSHA and MSHA exposure limits and emphasizes practical, effective ways to reduce dust at the source.
