Los Angeles OSHA Lawyers Protect Your Business

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has established a protocol for the handling of workplace injuries. Once an employer is notified that their employee has been injured, they will have 8 hours to notify OSHA. When OSHA claims that you violated standards set forth by the administration, by taking too long to report the incident, Poole Shaffery can be brought in to help negotiate the violation or get the violation removed.
