Question: Can FFSHCs engage in moneymaking activities?

Answer:

No. FFSHCs cannot engage in moneymaking endeavors. FFSHCs and their officers or members are not authorized to contract with private vendors, collect or disperse fees for goods or services, retain monies, incur expenses, bill for such activities, or lend the name of OSHA or DOL in support of a private vendor. Collecting money from outside sources, such as private sector vendors, would be an illegal augmentation of OSHA's appropriation. In addition, FFSHCs cannot endorse goods or services offered by private sector vendors.
