In a typical year OSHA issues over $40 million in fines to non-compliant organizations. Earlier this year OSHA issued a landmark $1.7 million fine against a major furniture manufacturer (non-construction) in Wisconsin.

The good news for facility managers and supporting trades, is that OSHA compliance does not need to be complicated or expensive. Join us for this month’s Chapter presentation as we discuss OSHA audits, compliance “hot-points” and how to develop your compliance game plan.

This program is approved for 0.1 CEU’s by IACET.
