OSHA Citation Defense

 

All employers have employees exposed to hazardous conditions in the work place, and therefore a responsibility to exercise reasonable care to prevent and detect violations. OSHA’s Citation Policy defines and describes the degree of responsibility for workplace hazards imposed on creating, exposing, correcting, or controlling employers. The requirements imposed on a employer for hazards confronted by workers are too numerous to count and the even the most diligent employers can fall prey to unknowing exposing there employees to these hazards.

 

If cited by OSHA, employers have to defend a Citation alleging responsibility for safety hazards confronted by workers. Although OSHA Citations can be a scary thing for your business to face, you do not have to go it alone. Safety Operation service is here to help.
