Alliance Formed To Provide Safety For Nurses in Philadelphia While On The Job
PHILADELPHIA -- A new alliance between the U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and the Pennsylvania Association of Occupational Health Nurses aims to provide safety and health training for Pennsylvania occupational health professionals. The training will focus on OSHA standards, emergency preparedness, musculoskeletal disorders and workplace violence.
OSHA and the professional association, whose members are registered nurses specializing in occupational and environmental health, recently launched the alliance at a ceremony in Philadelphia.
"Through this alliance, occupational health nurses throughout the commonwealth of Pennsylvania will have access to the resources they need to stay safe and healthy on the job," said Marie Cassady, OSHA's acting regional administrator in Philadelphia.
OSHA health and safety alliances are part of U.S. Secretary of Labor Elaine L. Chao's ongoing efforts to improve the health and safety of employees through cooperative partnerships with trade associations, labor organizations, employers and government agencies. OSHA currently has 468 alliances throughout the nation with organizations committed to fostering safety and health in the workplace.
