SAFETY CONSULTING      
Professional Staff Management, Inc. (PSM) provides comprehensive consulting services to help employers comply with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulations.  By complying with the OSHA regulations, employers can reduce work related illnesses and injuries, as well as accidents.  Dave DeLong, our Safety and Workers’ Compensation Manager is a former Indiana OSHA Compliance Officer.  He has conducted over 300 compliance inspections, including accidents and fatalities.  He received his B.S. in Occupational Safety and Health from Indiana University and is a Certified Hazardous Materials Manager (CHMM) with over 19 years of experience in the environmental, health and safety fields.

MOCK OSHA INSPECTIONS
Our workplace Safety Inspections will identify physical conditions and workplace practices at your site that are in violation of specific OSHA regulations.  As part of the audit we will also include an Administrative Compliance Audit, where we review your written health & safety programs, employee training records, inspection forms, and injury/illness logs to identify those items which are missing, deficient, or out-of-date.

After the audit, you’ll receive a report that documents each violation found, lists the appropriate OSHA standard violated, then provides a recommendation for correcting the hazard or deficiency, thereby helping you avoid costly OSHA citations. Your written audit report is strictly confidential!

No matter if you need a baseline measurement of your administrative OSHA compliance programs, a highly-trained "extra set of eyes" to look over your operations, or a very thorough assessment of the conditions present at your facility, our mock-OSHA inspections & audits will provide you with the information you need to get focused and headed in the right direction!

Learn from PSM where your company has exposure to potential OSHA citations and costly penalties BEFORE it's too late!
