Admitting an OSHA Compliance Officer:

If an OSHA compliance inspector requests to conduct an inspection, the senior management

member of Xyz Company is to ask to see the officer's credentials. An OSHA inspector carries either U.S. or

the state's Department of Labor credentials bearing their photograph and a serial number. In

every case, verify the authenticity of the compliance inspector's identification by calling the

nearest OSHA office.

Note: DO NOT REFUSE THE COMPLIANCE OFFICER ADMITTANCE.

The senior management member is to contact the Safety and Health Manager immediately.

If Xyz Company requires a Search Warrant, inform the OSHA compliance

officer before the opening conference begins. Xyz Company's right to

challenge a warrant may be lost if it permits the inspection to proceed.

OSHA Facts:

An OSHA Inspection is divided into three parts:

1. The Opening Conference

2. The Walk Around Inspection

3. The Closing Conference

.

There are no time limits specifying how long an inspector may remain on the premises.

.

Violations are considered to be "alleged violations" until they become a final order of the

Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission.

.

.....1.  Xyz Company may contest (appeal), in writing any part of the citation

........within 15 working days after it has received it.

.....2.  The citation must be posted in the work place for three days following its receipt or

........until the condition creating the alleged violation is corrected.

. ...3.  Management will ask for clarification about any point(s) an inspector raises that

........they don't understand.

.....4.  Management and employees will not admit to violating any safety standard.

If Xyz Company contests (appeals) an alleged violation, copies of the appeal will

be posted at the work site.
