OSHA Standards and Workplace Hazards

Observing Monitoring

  • If health hazards are present in the workplace, a special OSHA health inspection may be conducted by an industrial hygienist.  This OSHA inspector may take samples to measure levels of dust, noise, fumes, or other hazardous materials.

  • OSHA will inform the employee representative as to whether the employer is in compliance.

  • The inspector will also gather detailed information about the employer's efforts to control health hazards, including results of tests the employer may have conducted.
