15th Annual Cal/OSHA Update Seminar Announced

California Safety Services Group announced its 15th Annual Cal/OSHA Update Seminar Series with Joel Cohen, Robert Peterson, esq. (past chief counsel of the Cal/OSHA Appeals Board) and Lee Klein, former Cal/OSHA District Manager and primary author of Cal/OSHA’s Policies and Procedures Manual.  The series will be hosted in Rohnert Park, Oakland, Sacramento, Fresno, Ontario, Burbank, Anaheim and San Diego from March 11 through April 4.

The day-long seminar will review and update significant Cal/OSHA regulation and policy changes, which occurred in 2002, including a discussion of the state’s new mold laws and proposed changes to the ergonomics standard.  Significant rulings of the Appeals Board will also be discussed.

In addition to the day-long program is a 2-hour early morning session designed specifically for contractors (6:30 to 8:30am).  This brief session will focus on problems unique to contractors such as what defenses are available to a general contractor or subcontractor to defend against citations issued under the “multi-employer” policy and what steps must be taken to successfully present the defense.

This seminar is only offered once a year.  If interested, call our office at (650) 349-9737 for additional information.  Cohen Group clients receive a discount.
