Whistle Blower--OSHA Compliance
Michael Mabee
Office of Investigative Assistance |
| What are the 14 whistleblower statutes over which OSHA has jurisdiction? Frequently, people are surprised to learn that not only does OSHA handle whistleblower complaints on health and safety issures, but they also cover nuclear, environmental, aviation, transportation (including truck, railroad and pipeline) as well as corporate fraud. Depending on the statute, both public and private sector employees and employers are covered. |

Blind Spot--The Aging Worker
William Margaretta

| What you don't see can kill you. This session will explore vision and lack of standards for safe working and driving. How many codes can you cite that require visual inspection? How many of those codes require that the inspectors be able to see? Through a fun series of exercises the participants will gain a deeper understanding of the visual field and how what they aren't seeing may be killing workers. Highly recommended for any professional responsible for fleets, construction, production, quality control or emergency response. |
