OSHA’s Top 10 Most Frequently Cited Standards for FY 2022
This webinar will highlight the top 10 most frequently cited standards following worksite inspections by federal OSHA from Oct. 1, 2021, to Sept. 30, 2022. OSHA publishes this list to alert employers about these commonly cited standards so they can take steps to find and fix recognized hazards before workers get hurt, become ill or lose their life.
Far too many preventable injuries, illnesses and deaths that occur in the workplace are related to these top 10 cited standards. OSHA encourages employers to implement a safety and health management program that is built around core elements that include management leadership, worker participation, hazard identification, hazard prevention and control, education and training, and program evaluation and improvement. Implementing a strong safety and health management program is a way for companies to demonstrate that they hold up safety and health as a core value.
