Compliance
Assistance Quick Start: Hispanic Outreach
The OSHA Hispanic Outreach Module of Compliance
Assistance Quick Start will assist employers with
a Spanish-speaking workforce to learn more about employer and employee workplace
rights and responsibilities, identify Spanish-language outreach resources,
detail how employers can work cooperatively with OSHA, and provide a list
of persons
whom they can contact for additional information. By following this
step-by-step guide, employers will be able to identify OSHA Spanish-language
resources on OSHA’s website that will help them comply with the
Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 as well as help them to prevent employee workplace injuries and
illnesses.
For more information, please see the
OSHA English-Spanish and Spanish-English Dictionaries (with phonetic pronunciation
guides) that contain over 400 general OSHA and construction safety and
health industry terms. Additionally, the
OSHA Directory, which is a
collection of national, regional, state plan and on-site consultation
contact information incorporated within the Hispanic Outreach Module, may
also be a valuable reference resource after completing the above
steps.
NOTE:
