Training Overview
What do you do when your organization faces an OSHA inspection? Learn how to prepare and overcome citations for COVID-19 risks.
Effective immediately, the Secretary of Labor is increasingly enforcing the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA), recognizing a need to identify and mitigate COVID-19 risks in organizations. To prepare for this scrutiny and avoid the ire of regulators, you need to understand OSHA’s history and purpose, the types of citations frequently issued, and penalties.
If your organization receives a citation, you can apply practical steps to respond. An incorrect response, even simply paying a fine, can lead to unwanted ramifications.
