What if I refuse to correct a Serious hazard that has been identified by the consultant?

By signing the Consultation Application for Service, you have agreed to correct all Serious hazards identified by the consultant in the shortest, feasible time frame. If you refuse to correct a Serious hazard that could cause Serious harm or death to an employee, the consultant is required to notify the Consultation Program Manager of your refusal. The Program Manager will attempt to assist you in understanding the consequences of your refusal to correct the Serious hazards, including his or her obligation to refer your company to OSHA Enforcement.
