10 CFR 851, Worker Safety & Health Program
New regulations from the U.S. Department of Energy codify worker protection program requirements. The new DOE rule, 10 CFR 851, establishes the framework for a worker protection program that will reduce or prevent occupational injuries, illnesses, and accidental losses by requiring DOE contractors to provide their employees with safe and healthful workplaces. DOE contractors must be in compliance by May 25, 2007, although DOE may direct contractors to be compliant contractually before February 9, 2007. Dade Moeller & Associates is already working with our customers to assist them in their compliance efforts.
