Tennessee’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (TOSHA) offers a range of resources for small businesses seeking to improve workplace safety and meet federal and state regulations. The agency’s website provides access to its Outreach page, which contains training and education materials, as well as its Compliance page.
Members of the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) in Tennessee are encouraged to consider TOSHA’s Consultation program. This program provides confidential onsite consultant visits designed to help businesses enhance workplace safety without reporting violations.
The consultation program is “offered to employers, especially smaller employers, to assist them in achieving a safe and healthful workplace for their employees. Consultative Services offers both occupational safety and industrial hygiene services to manufacturing, construction, and other types of businesses in Tennessee. This no-cost service is designed to assist employers in developing or enhancing safety and health management systems.”
Employers interested in participating can request a visit through TOSHA’s website.
