OSHA Urged to Consider Risk Assessment Rule as a Possible New Regulatory Approach

ORC Senior Vice President Frank White is quoted in an article devoted to OSHA reform that appears in the June 4 issue of the Bureau of National Affairs’ Occupational Safety and Health Reporter.  Mr. White was on a panel of experts at the 2009 American Industrial Hygiene Association conference, and the panel endorsed, among other ideas,  an employer risk assessment standard as a new regulatory approach for the Occupational Safety and Health Administration.
