Safety
The Occupational Safety and Health Act passed the U.S. Congress in 1970 creating the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). OSHA regulations are constantly changing as workplace conditions change, but they are applied to every business workplace – office and field. Some of these regulations are enforced by state agencies with their own regulations. Since 1992, Walsh Certified Consultants, Inc., has been helping our clients comply with OSHA regulations.
