Do you utilize the OSHA On-Site Consultation Program? Do you utilize your workers compensation insurance carrier for health and safety support? If yes, is there a fee for those services? Do you track the amount of hours staff spends in health and safety training? Do you track the cost of personal protective equipment used by your staff? Your airport's cost of OSHA compliance is influenced by the roles and responsibilities of airport staff and use of third party contractors. The next four questions address roles and responsibilities of airport staff versus contractors. Does airport maintenance staff enter confined spaces? Does airport staff do new construction? Does airport staff do major building renovations? Page B-13
