Subject: cement

Question
I am going to begin working in a cement plant in new mexico. I have read a lot about industrial safety but I have never worked in this kind of industry. I am not sure what is more convinient for me: to read about general safety or learned a lot just about the specific risks in this work place... please give me your professional advice
thanks a lot.

Answer
Thank you for the question.

THe short answer is both. You are on the right track.

A good general knowledge of industrial safety is a must for your industry. But, you also need specific cement plant operations safety. I expect the plant will have a site specific safety orientation that they will be putting you through. I also recommend you go to www.osha.gov and read up on cement plant safety. Just do a search and you will find tons of information.

I hope this helps you.
