Smithsonian Directive 419 (SD419) SI Safety & Health ProgramThe Smithsonian Institution Safety, Health and Environmental Management Program is defined by Smithsonian Directive 419 (SD 419) and is implemented through the companion document, The Smithsonian Institution Safety Manual. Together they provide the overarching Policy and Guiding Principles for operation of the Program. The objective of the SI safety, health and environmental management program is to create a comprehensive, self-sustaining culture of safety performance in each museum, research institute, and office that enables employee effectiveness, productivity, and professional fulfillment in executing the SI mission. The Smithsonian Institution Safety Manual provides for implementation and supplementation of the regulations and codes governing occupational safety and health, environmental management, and fire and life safety, as promulgated by such agencies and organizations including, but not limited to: the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, U.S. Department of Transportation, the National Fire Protection Association, the American National Standards Institute and the International Code Counsel. The Manual is not intended to be an all-inclusive listing of regulations, although every attempt has been made to be comprehensive. In the event of conflicting laws or regulations, the more reasonable protective or stringent requirements will be met. |
