The Obama administration has promised increased regulatory enforcement against employers, and more OSHA inspectors are being hired. Additionally, OSHA knows that employers are trying to do more with less these days, so it’s operating under the assumption that illegal safety shortcuts are being taken.
The bottom line? You’re now more likely than ever to get a knock on the door from OSHA. It’s time to get ready.
Join us on December 4 for an in-depth, 90-minute webinar. We’ll explain how to prepare for – and defend yourself against - inspections, safety complaint investigations, and penalties and fines.
You and your colleagues will learn:
- Current OSHA inspection priorities, including heat illness prevention and child labor
- How to best prepare for a visit
- How the enforcement actions and the new penalty calculations affect you
- Effective strategies to energize employees around safe work practices
- Why it’s vital to integrate safety and human resources policies and practices
- Takeaway tips you can start using right away
