Pennsylvania employers who want help with recognizing and correcting safety and health hazards and in improving their safety and health programs can get it from a FREE consultation service largely funded by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).

The program addresses immediate problems and also offers professional advice and help in maintaining continued, effective worker protection. Besides helping employers to identify and correct specific hazards, consultants provide guidance in establishing or improving an effective safety and health program and offer training and education for employer, the employer's supervisors, and employees.

The service is given primarily at the work site, but limited services may be provided away from the employer's work site.

Primarily targeted for smaller businesses in higher-hazard industries or with especially hazardous operations, the safety and health consultation program is completely separate from OSHA's inspection effort. No citations are issued, nor are penalties proposed.
