AGREEMENT ESTABLISHING AN ALLIANCE
BETWEEN
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration
U.S. Department of Labor
Region IV, Birmingham and Mobile, Alabama Area Offices
And
Alabama - Associated General Contractors of America, Incorporated
Alabama Road Builders Association, Incorporated
Safe State of Alabama, Alabama Department of Transportation,
The Federal Highway Administration – Alabama Division,

The Alabama Asphalt Pavement Association joins with the Occupational Safety
and Health Administration (OSHA), Alabama – Association General Contractors of America (AlabamaAGC),
Alabama Road Builders Association (ARBA), Safe State of Alabama, Alabama Department of
Transportation (ALDOT), The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), 3M Corporation (3M), Lamar
Outdoor Advertising (Lamar), Auburn University - Alabama Technology Transfer Center (Alabama T-2
Center), Alabama Power Company (Alabama Power) and Public Employee Safety Council of Alabama (PESCA)
in recognizing the value of establishing a collaborative relationship to advance safety and more
healthful American workplaces. The AL-Asphalt Pavement Association therefore agrees to join the
OSHA, AlabamaAGC, ARBA, Safe State, ALDOT, FHWA, 3M, Lamar, Alabama T-2 Center, Alabama Power and
PESCA Alliance to use their collective expertise to help protect employees’ health and safety,
particularly promoting the value of safety and health to alliance members and others in the area of
work zone safety and the prevention of “Struck By” hazards. The AL-Asphalt Pavement Association
agrees to all of the provisions of the original Alliance signed on April 16, 2003, and renewed by
OSHA, AlabamaAGC, ARBA, Safe State, ALDOT, FHWA, 3M, Lamar, Alabama T-2 Center, Alabama Power and
PESCA on February 3, 2005. In amending this agreement all participants recognize that OSHA’s State
Plan and Consultation project partners are an integral part of the OSHA national effort.
OSHA’s Alliances provide parties an opportunity to participate in a voluntary cooperative
relationship with OSHA for purposes such as training and education, outreach and communication and
promoting a national dialogue on workplace safety and health. These Alliances have proved to be
valuable tools for both OSHA and its Alliance participants. By entering into an Alliance with a
party, OSHA is not endorsing any of that party’s products or services; nor does the Agency enter
into an Alliance with the purpose of promoting a particular party’s products or services.
An implementation team made up of representatives from the participating organizations will meet to
develop a plan of action, determine working procedures, and identify the roles and responsibilities
of the participants. In addition, they will meet at least three times per year to track and share
information on activities and results in achieving the goals of the Alliance. OSHA will encourage
State Plan States’ and OSHA Consultation Projects’ participation on the team.
