Preventing Conflicts of Interest

At the Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission, conflicts of interest may arise from case proceedings before the Commissioners and the Administrative Law Judges (Judges). Therefore, disqualifications typically would be required when an action on a pending case (including a motion) is sought. Annually, financial disclosure filers, most of whom are Commissioners and Judges, are provided with lists of subsidiaries, divisions, and affiliates for each stock and bond holding found on their financial disclosure reports. Filers use these lists to determine the need to disqualify themselves from a particular case.
