Winning the OSHA Inspection: Expert Tactics for Successful Compliance and Citation Defense

In this webinar, you will learn best practices for managing an OSHA inspection to help you minimize the disruption associated with an inspection and to reduce the risk of receiving citations and the associated penalties. As penalty amounts rise every January and are now as much as $165,500 each, now is the time to prepare.

In this webinar, you will specifically learn:

• How to limit your liability as an employer from the opening conference through the issuance of citations (if any) by knowing your legal rights
• How to limit the scope of an inspection to prevent workplace disruptions, to limit employee anxiety, and to reduce or eliminate the possibility of citations
• How to control the opening conference (and thereby control the entire inspection process) to reduce or avoid citations

Lead by an instructor who has participated in over 2,000 inspections during his career, this webinar will provide you with valuable insight into the process of an OSHA inspection.

This presentation will also address ethical issues related to responding to an OSHA inspection, including exposures to criminal prosecution for mismanagement of the inspection.
