Attempting to make sense of OSHA regulations but don't know exactly where
to start? Been to the OSHA internet site and are overwhelmed? Do not be
concerned. You will locate the answers here. I have attempted to take the
very best of what the OSHA website has to supply for each little and huge
business and develop a step-by-step approach to support you recognize your
company's obligations and what you want to do next. This guide kicks it
off with a basic introduction to OSHA.
The Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act (MSPA)
regulates the hiring and employment activities of agricultural employers,
farm labor contractors, and associations utilizing migrant and seasonal
agricultural workers. The Act prescribes wage protections, housing and
transportation security standards, farm labor contractor registration
needs, and disclosure needs. The Wage and Hour Division administers this
law.
The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) exempts agricultural workers from
overtime premium spend, but demands the payment of the minimum wage to
workers employed on bigger farms (farms employing much more than roughly
seven full-time workers. The Act has specific kid-labor regulations that
apply to agricultural employment young children below 16 are forbidden to
operate during college hours and in specific jobs deemed too dangerous.
Youngsters employed on their families' farms are exempt from these
regulations. The Wage and Hour Division administers this law. OSHA also
has specific safety and overall health standards that could apply to
agricultural operations.
The Mine Act holds mine operators accountable for the security and
wellness of miners supplies for the setting of mandatory safety and health
standards, mandates miners' training requirements prescribes penalties for
violations and enables inspectors to close dangerous mines. The safety and
overall health standards address many hazards like roof falls, flammable
and explosive gases, fire, electrical energy, gear rollovers and upkeep,
airborne contaminants, noise, and respirable dust. MSHA enforces security
and wellness requirements at far more than 13,000 mines, investigates mine
accidents, and offers mine operators instruction, technical and compliance
help.
Many agencies administer applications associated solely to the
construction business. OSHA has unique occupational safety and overall
health standards for building The Wage and Hour Division , under Davis-
Bacon and connected acts, calls for payment of prevailing wages and
rewards The Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs enforces
Executive Order 11246 , which calls for federal construction contractors
and subcontractors, as well as federally assisted building contractors, to
provide equal employment opportunity the anti-kickback section of the
Copeland Act precludes a federal contractor from inducing any employee to
sacrifice any component of the compensation needed.
