On August 19, 2008, OSHA published a proposed rule designed to clarify that noncompliance with the personal protective equipment and training requirements in the general industry, construction, and maritime standards will expose employers to liability and penalties on a per-employee basis. Currently, an employer may receive one penalty for failure to train or provide personal protective equipment for multiple employees. Under this proposed rule, an employer could receive a separate penalty for each employee. The proposed rule, however, does not add any new compliance obligations for employers with respect to providing new equipment or training programs. It simply changes the liability risk for any failure to comply with existing regulations.In particular, the proposed rule makes two significant changes to the existing regulations.
