How to Handle an OSHA Inspection Seminar

Thursday, June 25, 2009 - 8:00am - LSU South Campus, Baton Rouge, LA

It is important that the proper preparation takes place prior to the OSHA inspection. This workshop will include:

  • Preparing for the inspection
  • The opening conference
  • The Inspection
  • The closing conference
  • Handling citations after the inspection

In attendance should be your safety and health managers, plant managers, supervisors, human resource personnel, as well as employees involved safety and health and/or as members of employee safety committees. Upon completion of this workshop participants should be able to:

  • Prepare for an OSHA inspection
  • Host an OSHA inspection
  • Properly document the OSHA Inspection
  • Properly contest citations if required
