The inspection process

Once OSHA has decided to initiate an inspection, the OSHA compliance officer, before visiting the establishment or site, will become familiar with as many relevant facts as possible about the workplace, such as the:

  • Inspection history of the establishment
  • Nature of the business
  • Standards that might apply

This preparation provides the compliance officer with a knowledge of the potential hazards and industrial processes that may be encountered. It also helps in the selection of appropriate personal protective equipment for protection against these hazards during the inspection.
