Public Relations For Osha Needed

Writen by Lance Winslow

Too many business people simply cannot stand the onerous over regulations that have to do with OSHA and that is a shame that our own government is so hostile to the business community and yet there must be some way to change this perspective. Indeed, OSHA needs a much better public relations program.

I propose that we have OSHA inspectors join in the Neighborhood Mobile Business Watch Patrols and then they will be assisting businesses and business owners by reducing crime rather than being seen as criminal government extortionists by the business community. Why would OSHA join such a program? Well to promote goodwill and strong public relations. You see OSHA is perfect for such a program, consider if you will that;

OSHA INSPECTORS: These inspectors go to facility departments of large corporations, they go to construction sites, and they go to government agencies and even colleges and Universities to insure that there are consistent and safe working conditions. This is good because they too are trained observers, drive four door sedans and have a huge networking pool of people they deal with on a regular basis.

This makes OSHA a natural for community business policing efforts and therefore part of the solution instead of considered a problem for the businesses. Consider this in 2006.
