Question: What are the expectations of Alliance participants?

Answer:

Alliance participants agree to certain fundamental requirements as a condition of their participation in the Program. These include:

• Disseminating information to their members and/or stakeholders on OSHA rulemakings, enforcement initiatives, outreach campaigns, and compliance assistance resources.
• Committing reasonable time and resources to achieve outreach and communication goals and complete any other mutually agreed-upon projects.
• Providing OSHA with information pertaining to Alliance-related dissemination efforts, events, speeches/presentations, and other activities, as appropriate.
• Making a reasonable effort to secure meaningful worker participation in the Alliance, which may be accomplished by, for example, having a union signatory to the Alliance, securing union participation, or ensuring other worker involvement in Alliance activities.
• Following the Guidelines for OSHA's Alliance Program Participants: Alliance Products and Other Alliance Projects for Alliance activities beyond outreach and dissemination. Any products developed through the Alliance must be made available to the public free of charge.
