On May 28, 2019, Andrew J. Sommer, Eric J. Conn and Megan S. Shaked of Conn Maciel Carey LLP‘s national OSHA Practice presented a webinar regarding: “Key Cal/OSHA Issues California Employers Must Track.”
The state of California’s Division of Occupational Safety and Health, better known as Cal/OSHA, is perhaps the most aggressive and enforcement-heavy approved state OSH Program in the nation. California employers face a host of requirements that other employers around the country do not. Likewise, the Cal/OSHA inspection and appeal process creates several unique landmines for California employers.
Of particular significance in the coming year, California employers should be on the lookout for a new permanent E-Recordkeeping injury data submission rule, a new focus on finding Repeat violations, and the roll-out of several new California-unique rules.
Participants in this webinar learned about:
-
Trends in Cal/OSHA Enforcement
-
New E-Recordkeeping electronic injury data submission requirements
-
Cal/OSHA’s new Repeat Violation Rule
-
Cal/OSHA’s Expanded Statute of Limitations for Recordkeeping Violations
-
Proposed Rules for Indoor Heat Illness Prevention, Workplace Violence in General Industry, and Protection from Wildfire Smoke
