Compliance Issues

OSHA is not a town in Wisconsin.

No matter whether your organization is a service company, manufacturer, medical facility, school, processing plant, nonprofit, or any other type of workplace, you are required to comply with federal OSHA regulations, as well as state and local regulations.

911 Consulting gives you practical solutions for complying with regulations (and covering your posterior) in these crucial areas:

  1. Mandatory Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) Standards. OSHA standards requiring every employer to anticipate and prepare for emergencies

  2. Conditional OSHA Standards. These may or may not be applicable to your worksite, depending on the presence of any type of hazardous materials.

    • Hazard Communication, OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1200. The most cited OSHA violation across the country. If you have MSDS, you must have a Hazard Communication Plan by law.
  3. EPA Spill Plan: 40 CFR 112
  4. Your State & Local Fire Safety Code
  5. National Standard: NFPA 1600 Recognized by Congress [PL108-458, §7305(a), (b)] as the national and state standard for EM, DR & BC
  6. Your Commercial Insurance Policy
  7. Your Mortgage & Credit Lines
  8. Premises liability
  9. New 2011: DHS regulations aimed at all private-sector organizations. NFPA 1600 is their standard
  10. New 2011: Standard & Poor's Audit Standards (ERM). NFPA 1600 is their standard
  11. Foreseeable circumstances
  12. Failure to plan*
  13. Failure to train*
  14. Juries in State & Federal Court*

* Emphasized because these will be the subjects of the law suits against you when an employee, visitor or contractor gets injured-or worse-on your premises.
