On-Demand WebinarWebinar: The Human Factor in OSHA Enforcement and Compliance
Your company has a great occupational safety and health program. It trains its employees and has a safety incentive program that employees love. Then an employee ignores his training and fails to lock out a machine, injuring himself, and OSHA comes knocking. This webinar will explore the human factor in occupational safety and health and how it impacts OSHA enforcement actions.
Topics covered will include:
- Acknowledging that OH&S programs can only minimize risk, not eliminate it
- Factors that lead to a successful OH&S program, including training, auditing, and discipline
- How to instill a safety culture at your company with employee buy-in
- Determining leading indicators of OH&S risks rather than relying on lagging indicators
- How to defend an OSHA citation where the condition cited resulted from employee misconduct.
- How to establish the employee misconduct defense
