A+ for Alliances!

摘要

Alliances are the newest of OSHA's cooperative programs. They provide a novel means for the agency to achieve its mission of preventing injuries and illnesses―by collaborating with organizations that share OSHA's commitment to improving workplace safety and health. OSHA Administrator John L. Henshaw sees alliances as a natural extension of Secretary of Labor Elaine L. Chao's department-wide effort to increase outreach and assistant efforts. "We in OSHA have expanded our cooperative programs to include this new way of working with OSHA," Henshaw told members of the Society of the Plastics Industry, Inc., as he welcomed them into their new alliance with OSHA in September. "We're leveraging resources by jointly promoting safe and healthful working conditions in many industries through associations like yours."
