OSHA compliance, investigations and citation appeals

This issue addresses the vaccine mandate, Federal OSHA’s whistleblower program and Emergency Temporary Standard on COVID-19, measures to protect workers from heat-related illnesses, updated COVID-19 guidelines from the CDC and decisions issued recently by multiple state-run OSHA programs.
