Handling an OSHA Citation – The Process, Your Rights and Opportunities

 
  October 16, 2012  
     
 
ComplianceOnline, Online Event
2012-11-19


Why Should You Attend:

With OSHA’s new focus on enforcement, and movement away from a more consultative approach, more and more employers are receiving OSHA citations after an inspection. In addition to more initial citations being issued, OSHA is using these initial citations as a stepping stone to repeat violations where the fines can increase significantly.

This 90 minute webinar training will address all of the things that you must do, and the times in which you must do them, in order to preserve your rights to appeal the citation, arrange for an informal conference with the Area Director, and even, represent yourself at a hearing before the OSHA review board. The days of simply negotiating down the fine are gone. A simple less than serious citation can easily lead to a repeat violation, where penalties can be imposed up to $70,000. 

Learn from a former attorney and OSHA authorized outreach instructor that still represents clients before OSHA review boards. The webinar is a must for employers to be prepared for handling an OSHA citation after an inspection.

Areas Covered in this Webinar:

  • Posting requirements upon receipt of citation.
  • Abatement period if hazard has not yet been abated.
  • Calculating the time periods in which to file an appeal.
  • The strategies to utilize in requesting an informal conference.
  • What you are entitled to request from OSHA regarding the investigation documents.
  • Understanding the calculation of the proposed fine.
  • Understanding the classification of the proposed citation.
  • How to evaluate the risk of doing nothing other than paying the citation.
  • How to handle statements made by your employees to OSHA inspector.
  • Whether you should represent yourself or hire an attorney or other representative.
  • The options available after an administrative hearing.
