On the recordSeptember 5, 1997
OSHA insists that the manual is not for educational purposes, but on enforcement of a new standard. It is widely regarded as constituting guidelines which are enforceable under the general duty clause. They are not kidding. Too many of those of us who are on the right committee and are paying attention to them; of course they are going to enforce these standards. Therefore, employers will have no choice but to comply with standards that we do not understand, nor does the medical community.
