OSHA Activity Intensifying

ISHN posted an editorial about recent activity by OSHA. According to the article, "the past month or two has seen more activity from OSHA than was seen in several previous years combined."

Having spent the past several years in Florida's construction industry, I'm not sure how much more "aggressive" they could be. Florida saw several years of "blitzes" or "enhanced enforcement" in the construction industry. And now, that same approach is occurring in Texas.

Anyway, ISHN's editorial indicates that OSHA is just getting started and that we can expect OSHA to continue to accelerate until it reaches "cruising speed" in a year or two.
