3       What you’ll learn. . .

 

Construction trades routinely renovate and demolish buildings that were built prior to 1981.  These construction activities often result in contact with asbestos-containing materials.  Asbestos Awareness Training is required annually for employees whose work activities may contact asbestos-containing materials (ACM) or presumed asbestos-containing materials (PACM), but do not disturb ACM or PACM during their work activities.  This training consists of information regarding asbestos and its various uses and forms.  Training also includes information on the health effects associated with asbestos exposure.

Sherry has spent her entire State of Michigan career of fourteen years as an industrial hygienist with MIOSHA.  Before her assignment to the Consultation Education and Training Division, she served in a compliance capacity for the Occupational Health Division in both the Asbestos Program and Lansing District 6.  In these assignments, Sherry conducted investigations of alleged occupational health hazards in the state program in industrial facilities and at construction sites in both the public and private sectors.

Assigned to Consultation Education and Training in 2000, Sherry’s past work experience provide her with a practical simplicity in her current role as an industrial hygiene consultant.  Her goals include the prevention of occupational health regulations.

Sherry earned an undergraduate degree in Industrial and Environmental Health Management from Ferris State University.
