Occupational Safety and Health Administration
OSHA compliance for medical and dental practices.
Every practice with even one employee falls under the OSH Act. We identify which standards apply to your office, write the written programmes the law requires, and train your staff to the level an inspector expects.
Why it matters
Most citations come from three predictable places.
In our experience across more than 2,000 inspections and audits, the overwhelming majority of medical offices that get cited are cited for the same handful of failures: an incomplete or unreviewed exposure control plan, a hazard communication programme with no current safety data sheets, and training records that cannot be produced on request.
None of those are difficult problems. They are record-keeping problems, and they are entirely preventable. The difficulty is knowing precisely what the standard requires, in what format, reviewed how often, and signed by whom — which is exactly what we do.
An OSHA compliance officer arriving at your door does not accept "we do that, we just have not written it down". If it is not documented, it did not happen.
What we deliver
A complete OSHA programme, not a binder on a shelf.
Every element below is customised to your specialty, your equipment and the procedures your staff actually perform.
Written exposure control plan
A bloodborne pathogens plan naming your job classifications, tasks with exposure risk, engineering controls in use, and the annual review and device evaluation the standard requires.
Hazard communication programme
A current chemical inventory, an organised safety data sheet system, GHS-compliant secondary container labelling and documented employee training.
Annual staff training
Interactive on-site sessions delivered by a consultant, with handouts, an attendance roster and certificates of completion for every attendee.
On-site audit and report
A walkthrough of your entire facility resulting in a twelve-page findings report and a corrective action plan handed over before we leave.
The POC safety manual
Over 5,000 copies sold nationally. Written for healthcare practices, updated annually, with six months of free update support included.
Medical waste contract review
We read the contract you already signed. Practices frequently recover more than the cost of our engagement in the first renegotiated year.
Most offices that fail an inspection do not fail on practice. They fail on documentation.
