ASSE Backs OSHA and Illinois on Public Sector State Plan
ASSE expressed support for an Illinois Employee Only State Plan in a comment to OSHA on rulemaking to provide approval for the plan. ASSE has long supported extending occupational safety and health coverage to the 8.1 million public sector workers not covered under federal safety and health standards. ASSE members have also championed legislative efforts to advance OSH coverage for Florida’s public sector workers.
