OSHA Activity Survey

1. Thank you for participating in this brief survey.

AWI, in cooperation with both the Wood Components Mfg. Assn. (WCMA) and the Wood Products Mfg. Assn. (WPMA) are asking their members to help determine if, and to what extent, three (3) trends might be occurring in our industry over the past 12 months;

1) Has there been an increase in OSHA inspections;

2) What areas are OSHA inspectors focusing on and

3) Regarding OSHA violations, is the magnitude and severity of fines on the rise?

Survey findings will be made available to all members in mid June.

Our goal is to to bring awareness to AWI members of any trends that might impact their operations.
