Course Description
Will your record-keeping practices keep OSHA inspectors from citing you for violations?
Through their National Emphasis Program, OSHA has been zeroing in on record keeping, and you could bear the brunt of their latest crackdowns. As a result of the Omnibus Appropriations Act of 2009, OSHA received a $27 million increase in funding to be used specifically to "rebuild OSHA's enforcement".
What does that mean for you? Quite simply, it means that OSHA is scrutinizing records more closely, delivering harsher penalties, and sending out on-site inspectors more often.
As a result, your record-keeping practices had better be in compliance, or you could find yourself out of compliance with OSHA's rules and regulations. AND…you may not even realize it. This can mean costly penalties, fines, and legal costs.

- Spot red flags in your records that instantly prompt OSHA inspectors to take a closer look
