The OSHA and NCSE Alliance will provide NCSE members and others in the
construction industry with information, guidance, and access to training resources that will help
them protect employees’ health and safety, particularly for those who are new to the construction
industry. Through the Alliance, the organizations will focus on reducing and preventing exposure to
construction site workplace hazards such as falls, electrical, struck-by and caught in-between. The
Alliance’s goals include:
Outreach and communication:
- Work with OSHA to provide expertise in developing information on the recognition and prevention
of construction workplace hazards, and to provide expertise in developing ways of communicating
such information (e.g. print and electronic media, electronic assistance tools and OSHA’s Web
site) to employers and employees in the construction industry.
- Speak and/or participate at OSHA’s or NCSE’s meetings.
- Work with other Alliance participants on specific construction issues and projects that are
addressed and developed through the Alliance Program.
Promoting the national dialogue on workplace safety and health:
- Convene or participate in forums, round table discussions, or stakeholder meetings on
construction safety and health issues to help forge innovative solutions in the workplace or to
provide input on safety and health issues.
