In this episode of our Safety Perspectives From the Dallas Region podcast series, shareholders John Surma (Houston) and Frank Davis (Dallas) discuss the new settlement process implemented by the Dallas Regional Office of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and the Dallas Regional Solicitor’s Office. John and Frank emphasize that this process now includes a second round of negotiations following the contesting of citations. This change could lead to more favorable outcomes for employers, including reductions in penalties and the possibility of having citations withdrawn. The speakers also touch on the potential reasons behind this new approach, such as reducing the workload for the Solicitor’s Office and addressing recent legal challenges faced by administrative bodies.
