New Cal/OSHA Issues California Employers Must Track

Presented by Andrew J. Sommer, Eric J. Conn and Megan S. Shaked
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 can expect an uptick in Cal/OSHA penalties as result of two significant changes, one adopting higher maximum penalty authority and the other changing how the agency finds and cites violations characterized as Repeat.
​During this webinar, participants learned:
​- Top Cal/OSHA Violations and Trends in Cal/OSHA Enforcement
– Likely New Rule requiring electronic submission of injury and illness data
– Cal/OSHA’s New Repeat Violation Rule and Increased Penalty Authority
– Other Developments, such as Cal/OSHA’s New Workplace Violence Rule
– Tips for Navigating the Cal/OSHA Appeals Process
