The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 makes employers responsible for providing a safe and healthy workplace by implementing OSHA guidelines in their organization. By being OSHA compliant, businesses can gain access to timely data that can help identify and mitigate risks and work on health and safety programs to provide a safe workplace to prevent avoidable illnesses and injuries.
Worker participation is an essential component of OSHA compliance, requiring workers’ involvement and participation in establishing, operating, evaluating, and improving workplace safety and health programs. To have an effective safety and health program, all workers:
- Are encouraged to provide inputs and report safety or health concerns without any fear
- Need access to information to participate effectively in the program
- Have opportunities to participate in all phases of program design and implementation
- Do not face retaliation when they raise safety and health concerns; report injuries, illnesses, and hazards; participate in the program, or exercise safety and health rights
