On February 9, 2015, the U.S. Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) published the “Enforcement Guidance for the Hazard Communication Standard’s (HCS) June 1, 2015, Effective Date” (Guidance). The Guidance offers important insights into OSHA’s HCS enforcement strategy and is a must read for stakeholders. See Bergeson & Campbell, P.C.’s (B&C®) memorandum “HCS: OSHA Publishes Enforcement Guidance for the Hazard Communication Standard” for further details.
B&C, The Acta Group (Acta®), and 3E Company, a Verisk Analytics business, are pleased to present a complimentary webinar on the steps companies should take between now and June 1, 2015, to comply fully with HCS, or else to document sufficient diligence toward full compliance to avoid enforcement action.
Topics will include:
- Review of the general content of the enforcement guidance;
- Recommendations on processes and procedures to ensure compliance; and
- Legal discussion on potential non-compliance.
Speakers:
- Karin F. Baron, M.S.P.H., Regulatory Consultant, Acta;
- Elizabeth Tanner, Product Manager, 3E Company; and
