RENEWAL AGREEMENT ESTABLISHING AN ALLIANCE
BETWEEN
THE OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH ADMINISTRATION
U.S. DEPARTMENT OF LABOR, REGION X
AND
ADSC: INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF FOUNDATION DRILLING,
WEST COAST CHAPTER
|
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), Region X and the
International Association of Foundation Drilling, West Coast Chapter (WCC-ADSC) continue to
recognize the value of establishing a collaborative relationship to foster safer and more healthful
American workplaces. Region X OSHA and the WCC-ADSC hereby commit to continue to provide ADSC
members and others in the foundation drilling industry, including small businesses and non-English
or limited English speaking employees, with information, guidance, and access to training resources
that will help them protect employees' health and safety. Region X OSHA and the WCC-ADSC will focus
on safety and health issues including, fall protection, silica, pinch-point and equipment operation
hazards. In developing this Alliance, Region X OSHA and the WCC-ADSC recognize that OSHA's State
Plan and Consultation Project partners are an integral part of the OSHA national effort.
OSHA's Alliances provide parties an opportunity to participate in a voluntary cooperative
relationship with OSHA for purposes such as training and education, outreach and communication and
promoting a dialogue on workplace safety and health. These Alliances have proved to be valuable
tools for both OSHA and its Alliance participants. By entering into an Alliance with a party, OSHA
is not endorsing any of that party's products or services; nor does the Agency enter into an
Alliance with the purpose of promoting a particular party's products or services.
An implementation team made up of representatives of both organizations will continue to meet to
take further action in determining working procedures, and identifying the roles and
responsibilities of the participants. In addition, they will meet at regular intervals to track and
share information on activities and results in achieving the goals of the Alliance.
This agreement will remain in effect for two years from the date of signing and will automatically
be renewed annually thereafter. This agreement may be modified at any time with the concurrence of
the signatories and may be terminated for any reason with 30 days written notice from any of the
signatories.
