The many thousands of workplaces subject to Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulation are faced with a variety of challenging safety issues over the course of completing a project or operating a facility. Under OSHA standards, all workplaces are required to develop emergency response plans in order to effectively respond to the many and varied safety crises that businesses face in the modern economy. Considerable effort is expended every year by safety and legal professionals to create and further develop quality emergency response plans. Unfortunately, no matter how much time and money is expended to prevent crises, they occur, and can have devastating consequences.
