Webinar Featuring OSHA Workplace Safety to be Held on August 11 Join the Georgia Chamber on August 11 at 12:00 p.m. (EDT) for 13 Strategies for Dealing with an Enforcement-Driven OSHA While Improving Your Safety And Bottom-Line Profitability, a webinar outlining OSHA's most current enforcement-focused regulatory initiatives and the proposed Congressional changes to the Occupational Safety and Health Act, presented by attorneys from the Fisher & Phillips LLP Workplace Safety and Catastrophe Management Practice Group.
The program will review the essential elements of OSHA compliance and a cost-effective workplace safety and health program, with an eye toward preparing for increased civil and criminal enforcement, as well as the use of safety issues by unions and a growing group of whistleblowers. The webinar will also explain how, when used properly, safety compliance can be a "profit center" instead of another administrative cost, while at the same time protecting your company's brand/reputation.
Reserve your seat today at https://www1.gotomeeting.com/register/301076297. Space is limited for this one-hour webinar.
