You've Been Selected to Be a VPP Onsite Team Member! Now What

Abstract

Welcome to the Voluntary Protection Programs (VPP) Team! You are about to join a multidisciplinary group that will evaluate the effectiveness of the safety and health program at a worksite seeking OSHA's recognition for excellence. This is a great opportunity to see firsthand how an outstanding occupational safety and health program actually works. And it's a chance to help a site already committed to safety and health improve its program. Although the site visit is similar to an inspection in some regards, the cooperative approach creates an entirely different climate and focuses on the worksite s safety and health program. OSHA enters not unannounced, but at the invitation of the company. It s nice for a change to go where you re welcome and wanted. Enjoy the difference!
