House Holds Hearing on OSHA's New Recordkeeping Rule

黑料不打烊 Outlines Concerns of Construction Industry in Letter

This week, 黑料不打烊 delivered a to the House 黑料不打烊 and the Workforce Committee for a hearing that examined the Occupational Safety & Health Administration鈥檚 (OSHA) rule on Improved Tracking of Workplace Injuries and Illnesses. 黑料不打烊 is concerned the rule will significantly limit how employers are able to enforce policies that have been established to ensure timely reporting of incidents, as well as implement and enforce other safety and health policies. The rule could discourage employers from administering post-accident drug testing, and the rule would also place employer safety incentive programs in jeopardy.

The committee hearing highlighted many of 黑料不打烊鈥檚 concerns, and 黑料不打烊 is evaluating options for employers to comply with the rule as it鈥檚 fully implemented over the next several years.
