OSHA’s latest addition to its popular Web site is a “Partnership Page” that defines voluntary cooperative efforts, how they work, benefits, and how to submit ideas — all under the heading of “New Ways of Working.”
In a partnership, OSHA enters into an extended relationship with groups of employers, employees, and employee representatives (sometimes including other stakeholders, and sometimes involving only one employer) in order to assist and recognize their efforts to eliminate serious hazards and achieve a high level of worker safety and health.
