These past two weeks we have seen some interesting developments on two OSHA actions: 1) anti-retaliation provisions in the new record-keeping rule and 2) Walking-Working Surfaces and Personal Protective Equipment (Fall Protection Systems) in General Industry (Subpart D and Subpart I) . It seems a judge has delayed OSHA’s enforcement of its anti-retaliation provisions in the new record-keeping rule from November 1st to December 1st. On a brighter front, we learned late last week that OSHA’s Walking-Working Surfaces and Personal Protective Equipment (Fall Protection Systems) in General Industry (Subpart D and Subpart I) cleared the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB). This effort started way back before my time (1990) and was recently attempted back in 2010; it now looks to get final passage.
