SAFETY NEW OSHA JOB SAFETY & HEALTH POSTER

OSHA has issued a new version of the “Job Safety and Health – It’s the Law!” poster informing workers of their right to request an OSHA inspection of their workplaces, receive information and training on job hazards, report a work-related injury or illness, and raise safety and health concerns with their employer or OSHA without fear of retaliation. The poster also informs employers of their legal obligation to provide a safe workplace, including the new reporting rules for workplace injuries and fatalities that went into effect January 1 of this year. Employers must display the poster in a conspicuous place where workers can see it, and provide copies in other languages besides English for workers who speak another primary language. The poster is free and can be downloaded or ordered at https://www.osha.gov/Publications/poster.html Click on “high-resolution PDF” to download the new poster.

Should you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact the Association office.
