In this installment of our Safety Perspectives From the Dallas Region podcast series, Frank Davis (shareholder, Dallas) and John Surma (shareholder, Houston) are joined by Milwaukee shareholder Eric Hobbs, who is the chair of the firm’s Workplace Safety and Health Practice Group. The speakers discuss the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s (OSHA) continued focus on ergonomics, including in some National Emphasis Programs (NEPs) and as part of the proposed Warehouse Worker Protection Act (WWPA). They also discuss whether OSHA’s recent standard interpretation means that certain common treatments may lead to the finding of a recordable restricted duty.
