What is the real cost of a workplace injury?

Your Safety, Our Expertise

No-cost to You

Using a no-cost consultation service, employers can find out about potential hazards at their worksites, improve their safety and health programs, and even qualify for a one-year exemption from routine OSHA inspections.

Expert Advice

This service is provided by well-trained professional staff by the Delaware Department of Labor. Consultation visits can be conducted for the entire workplace or limited to specific areas or processes.

Worry Free Guarantee

This safety and health consultation program is completely separate from the OSHA inspection effort. In addition, no citations are issued or penalties proposed. Your only obligation will be to correct hazards identified by the consultants.

Completely Confidential

It’s confidential, too. Your name, your firms name, and any information you provide about your workplace, plus any unsafe or unhealthful working conditions that the consultant uncovers, will not be reported routinely to the OSHA inspection staff.

On-site Visit

When the Consultant arrives at your worksite, they’ll start by explaining their role and what you need to know as an employer. This initial meeting ensures you’re clear on your responsibilities and rights before the visit begins.

Hazard Survey

You and the consultant will team up to review your workplace, spot potential hazards, and discuss existing safety practices. They may also chat with your employees and take photos, all to help create a safer work environment and prevent future issues.
