Safety Links vs. OSHA Consultation::

The OSHA consultation definitely has its place in the Safety Consultation world (especially for small companies) however, before you use these services there is one thing you need to be aware of.

Although the consultation program is technically separate from the enforcement program you will have the obligation “to commit yourself to correcting serious job safety and health hazards….in a timely manner”. Moreover “if you fail to eliminate or control identified serious hazards…the situation must be referred from consultation to an OSHA enforcement office for appropriate action”.

Although Safety Links ultimately wants you to correct serious hazards, we will work with you to identify and prioritize your issues so that they can be controlled in the most feasible timetable. If for some reason you are not willing to correct the hazard your safety coach will maintain the strictest confidentially and will never notify OSHA.
