OSHA's working on weekends

There is a push on to conduct as many inspections as possible before OSHA’s fiscal year ends on September 30th. Both Area Offices here in Colorado have put their compliance teams on split schedules so they are working seven days a week. The teams working Saturday and Sunday are simply driving around Colorado looking for job sites with workers present so they can stop and conduct inspections. Mike Rosser from Corporate Safety Services warns: If you have employees working weekends, we cannot have a “OSHA’s not working today” attitude. Let all of your foremen/supervisors know of this issue.
