Compliance Counseling

For those clients that have questions about their safety programs or about how to comply with OSHA standards, Arent Fox counsels clients in a variety of industries on these issues. We have conducted training sessions for clients on a wide variety of issues including how to manage an OSHA inspection, best practices for drafting incident reports, and preparing for an NEP inspection. We have assisted a number of clients with their compliance issues by conducting compliance audits to identify any existing OSHA violations. We also conduct attorney-client privileged internal audits in response to complaints, and we work with company personnel and technical experts in conducting privileged investigations following major catastrophes or employee fatalities. Arent Fox is the industry leader on issues related to attorney-client privileged investigations and audits in OSHA-related matters, recently securing a decision from the Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission (OSHRC) that affirmed the application of the privilege to the report of an independent consultant hired to assist with compliance advice.
