Handling an Inspection When OSHA Knocks - Environmental Health & Safety Series

Handling an Inspection When OSHA Knocks - Environmental Health & Safety Series

 
Join YOUR Union County Chamber as we invite Travis Vance, Partner at Fisher Phillips to share "What's New When Handling an Inspection When OSHA Knocks" This interactive and comprehensive presentation offers attendees an in-depth, practical examination of the Occupational Safety and Health Act (the "Act") and how it, and the Secretary of Labor's right to enforce the Act, may potentially affect your business.

Throughout the presentation, attendees will be provided practical, "real world" information regarding the various legal aspects of the Act, including references to many actual scenarios under which citations under the Act have been issued. Education regarding the Secretary of Labor's right to issue the various types of citations will be a focus; specifically, attendees will learn the ramifications that may result from the payment of citations (e.g., repeat and willful citations), even after settlement negotiations with the Secretary of Labor have taken place.

After the presentation, attendees will:
  • Know how to prepare for an OSHA inspection;
  • Know your rights if and when OSHA arrives;
  • Understand the ramifications of issues, including matters relating to employee testimony, arising during an OSHA inspection and litigation; and
  • Have a greater understanding of the interplay of OSHA with other types of laws and litigation.


Travis Vance is dedicated to responsive client service and forming a partnership with companies to help tackle their most difficult and high-profile issues.  Having gained a reputation as a professional and aggressive advocate for his clients, Travis has emerged as a thought leader in the field of workplace safety. His writing and interviews are followed closely by experts in the safety arena and have been featured in premiere publications such as Inc., Bloomberg Law, Business Insurance, The Washington Post, EHS Today, and the Wall Street Journal. 

Travis is a partner in the firm's Charlotte office and co-chair of the firm's Workplace Safety and Catastrophe Management Practice Group. He has tried matters across several industries and various subject matters, including employment litigation, business disputes and matters prosecuted by the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). He uses unique or outside-the-box approaches to counsel employers and owners on all aspects of employment law and the development of preventive policies and procedures to avoid employment and workplace safety-related claims.

Travis handles litigation in both federal and state courts as well as claims pending with state and federal agencies including the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), MSHA, OSHA, and the U.S. Department of Labor (USDOL). Travis is a member of the firm's COVID-19 Taskforce, a cross-disciplinary team of attorneys dedicated to advising employers on the many workplace law aspects of the global coronavirus pandemic. Travis has assisted over 500 companies during the pandemic and remains committed to serving companies to protect the safety and health of their employees. He has received over 40 requests to speak on topics concerning the pandemic.

Known for his dynamic and engaging speaking style, Travis receives several requests each year to speak on safety related topics throughout the country. His popular interactive presentation entitled "What to Do When OSHA Knocks," which walks attendees through an OSHA inspection, with the audience steering the direction of the presentation as it responds to several questions presented throughout the talk, is frequently requested and has received numerous exceptional reviews.
