Webinar: Best Practices for Navigating New OSHA Changes

Time: Thursday, November 29, 2012 - 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM
Registration: Webinar Registration

If OSHA has fallen off your radar screen, it is time to put it back on.  Over the past two years, OSHA has been changing, and more changes are on the way.   Employers in all industries are seeing a continual shift away from the government’s recent emphasis on cooperative efforts with employers to a more aggressive enforcement approach.

This presentation will briefly review the essential elements of OSHA compliance and an effective workplace safety and health program, with an eye to preparing for increased civil and criminal enforcement, as well as the use of safety issues to unions and a growing group of whistleblowers.  The presentation will also explain how, when used properly, safety compliance can be a “profit center” and not another administrative cost.

We will discuss:

• Significant changes within OSHA, including a new enforcement strategy
• OSHA’s rulemaking/standards agenda
• The future of OSHA’s voluntary compliance program
• How to develop an effective safety and health management system that will help add to your company’s bottom line
• Looming safety and health issues which will impact all employers

Edwin G. Foulke, Jr. (view bio) and Tex McIver (view bio), both Partners at Fisher & Phillips’ Atlanta office, will be presenting this webinar.
