OSHA Safety Training Keeps Pace

OSHA (The Occupational Safety and Health Administration) has a mammoth task, considering there are millions of employers and businesses in the United States. Since OSHA’s mandate is to govern the safety and protection of every worker in the U.S. from workplace accidents, it must find effective ways of communicating with employers and employees alike and making its resources readily available and easily accessible. With new technologies emerging every year, OHSA must constantly evaluate the market and identify what it takes to keep America’s workers safe.

Both OSHA and its counterpart NIOSH (The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health) were created as a result of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970. This act guarantees safety in the workplace for every citizen in the United States. NIOSH’s mandate involves research into creating safer workplaces, while OSHA’s mandate involves writing policies which govern workplace safety, as well as providing training and education to employers/managers and employees, and ensuring compliance with federal safety regulations in every workplace in America.
