Podcast: What's Up with the New Worker Walkaround Rule?

Sept. 16, 2024
Katie McLaughlin, Health & Safety lead at ISN, discusses how OSHA’s new walkaround encourages companies to strengthen their safety culture. by

When OSHA issued its worker walkaround rule, it gave employers and employees the right to authorize a representative to accompany OSHA officials during a workplace inspection. This issue sparked  companies to take a closer look at their culture.  

In this “Talking EHS” podcast, part of the “Great Question” podcast series, we talk to Kaite McLaughlin, Health & Safety lead at ISN about strategies to ensure they have a system in place that solicits worker feedback long before it reaches an OSHA inspection.
