OSHA’s Knocking: Your Employer Action Plan
A new administration means a possible shift in workplace safety priorities
Under the Biden administration, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) significantly increased its enforcement actions, leading to a surge in citations and penalties for businesses across the country. As a business leader, you know that compliance with OSHA’s stringent safety regulations is not just about avoiding fines—it’s about ensuring the safety and well-being of your employees.
With the Trump administration, it is unlikely that the same level of attention will be bestowed upon employers. Priorities are shifting, but this also means that many of the state OSH agencies are likely to become more active. In this presentation, we’ll tell you what changes you need to be aware of and what may be coming.
The complexities of OSHA regulations can be daunting. From understanding the intricate details of compliance requirements to effectively managing an unexpected inspection, navigating OSHA’s landscape demands expertise and vigilance. Noncompliance can result in hefty fines, legal battles and a tarnished reputation. Staying ahead of the curve is not just beneficial—it’s essential for your business’s survival and success.
Led by Dan Kaplan, an attorney with a proven track record in OSHA enforcement, this presentation will give you the insight needed to confidently handle any OSHA inspection. Dan will identify the new areas of focus under the Trump administration and relay best practices for everything from recordkeeping to audits, and how best to interact with OSHA when they knock on your door.
