THREE OSHA TRAINING INSTITUTE EDUCATION CENTERS
IN THE ATLANTA REGION¹

The U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Atlanta Regional Office and three OSHA Training Institute Education Centers (OTIECs) in the Atlanta Region continue to recognize the value of maintaining a collaborative relationship to foster safety and health practices and programs to improve American workplaces. To that end, OSHA and the three OTIECs that are signatories below (the Participants) hereby renew the Alliance signed September 29, 2015, and renewed October 4, 2017, and November 1, 2022, with a continued emphasis on providing health and safety training to employers and employees in the general and construction industries. Specifically, OSHA and the Participants are committed to providing OTIEC students and others with information, guidance, and access to training resources that will help them protect workers and understand the rights of workers and the responsibilities of employers under the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSH Act).

This agreement provides a framework and objectives for the Alliance's activities. Alliance participants also agree to meet the requirements for program participation laid out in the "Fundamental Requirements for OSHA Alliance Program Participants" and the "Guidelines for OSHA's Alliance Program Participants: Alliance Products and Other Alliance Projects."

Through the Alliance, the Participants will use injury, illness, and hazard exposure data, when appropriate, to help identify areas of emphasis for Alliance awareness, outreach, and communication activities. The Alliance will also explore and implement selected options, including but not limited to surveys, to evaluate the Alliance and measure the impact on improving workplace safety and health. In developing this Alliance, OSHA and the OTIECs recognize that OSHA's State Plan and On-Site Consultation Program partners are an integral part of the OSHA national effort, and that information about the products and activities of the Alliance may be shared with these partners for the advancement of common goals.
