The Alliance focuses on helping
Hispanic construction contractors (employers) reduce the number of Hispanic
construction workers injured or killed by work-related accidents through
improving their knowledge of safe and healthful work practices and achieving
compliance with safety and health standards and other regulations. The goals of the Alliance include:
Outreach and communication:
- Develop new resources, in Spanish, for employers and
employees such as safety and health publications, audio-visual and other
reference materials.
- Exhibit and disseminate safety and health information at
conferences, events, community-based activities and through electronic mediums.
- Work with community and faith based organizations and other
leadership groups to build safety and health awareness within the Hispanic
community.
- Encourage bilingual individuals in construction to take the
OSHA train-the-trainer course so they are qualified to teach Hispanic workers
the OSHA 10- and 30-hour construction safety and health outreach courses in
Spanish.
- Promote and encourage participation in OSHA’s cooperative programs among HCA members.
