Do you have reportable quantities of hazardous substances at your place of business? If so, what do you do about it? This class gives you an overview of what is considered a hazardous substance and how the Oregon Community Right To Know Act (CR2K) addresses reporting of these substances. You also learn why the CR2K is important and are provided the reporting requirements for hazardous substances, including upper and lower reporting levels. Attendees leave with information on the different types of user accounts and the accessibility of each of those accounts within the CR2K online reporting system, the CHS Manager (Community Right to Know Hazardous Substance Manager). Lastly, you learn about the differences in reporting requirements between Oregon’s CR2K and the Environmental Protection Agency’s Emergency Planning and Community Right To Know Act.

The objective of this course is to give the participant information on the most asked-about topics in premium audit. It discusses vacation and paid time off, bonuses, verifiable time records, and what an auditor is required to look at when auditing. All of this is tied into Oregon law, with examples and stories to make the information come to life. Participants will know the answers they need when their customer asks why vacation is excludable and sick pay is not, when a bonus can be excluded, and what the law requires for verifiable time records.
