The inspection process before the compliance offi cer ever visits your site is as follows:
● The compliance office will prepare themselves by becoming familiar with your particular industry and business through research. He or she will be familiar with the potential hazards and processes involved with your particular business. Once on site, the compliance offi cer begins by presenting his or her credentials.
The compliance officer discusses with the employer all unsafe or unhealthful conditions observed during the inspection and indicates the violations for which he or she may recommend a citation and a proposed penalty. At this time, the compliance offi cer will also inform the employer of the appeal process.
