(Rev. 9-19) EMPLOYERS: Each employer shall furnish to each of his employees employment and a place of employ ment free from recognized hazards that are causing or are likely to cause death or serious physical harm to his employees; and shall comply with occupational safety and health standards adopted under the Act. EMPLOYEES: Each employee shall comply with all occupational safety and health standards, rules, regulations and orders issued under the Act that apply to his own actions and conduct on the job. The Nevada Occupational Safety and Health Administration (Nevada OSH A) of the Division of Industrial Relatio ns, Department of Business and Industry, has the primary responsibility for administering the Act. Nevada OSHA enforces occupational safety and health standards, and its Saf ety and Health Representatives/ Industrial Hygienists conduct jobsite inspections to ensure compliance with the Act. INSPECTION: The Act requires that a representative of the employer and a representative authorized by the employees be given an opportunity to accompany the Nevada OSHA inspector for the purpose of aiding the inspection. Where there is no authorized employee representative, the Nevada OSHA Safety and Health Representative/ Industrial Hygienist must consult with a reasonable number of employees concerning safety and health conditions in the workplace. COMPLAINT: Employees , public or private, or their representatives have the right to fi le a complaint with the nearest Nevada OSHA office requesting an inspection if they believe unsafe or unhealthful conditions exist in their workplace. Nevada OSHA will hold confidential nam es of employees complaining. The Act provides that employees may not be discharged or discriminated against in any way for filing safety and health complaints or otherwise exercising their rights under the Act. An employee, public or private, who believ es he has been discriminated against may file a complaint within thirty (30) days of the alleged discrimination with the nearest Nevada OSHA office or with Occupational Safety and Health Administration, U.S. D epartment of Labor, 90 7th Street, Suite 18100, San Francisco, CA 94103 . CITATIONS: If upon inspection Nevada OSHA believes an employer has violated the Act, a citation alleging such violations will be issued to the employer. Each citation will specify a time period within which the alleged violation must be corrected. The Nevada OSHA citation must be prominently displayed at or near the place of alleged violation for three days, or until it is corrected, whichever is later, to warn employees of dangers that may exist there. PROPOSED PENALTY: The A ct provides for mandatory penalties a gainst employers of up to $13,260 for each serious violation and for op tional penalties of up to $13,260 for each nonserious viola tion. Penalties of up to $13,260 per day may be proposed for failure to correct violatio ns within the proposed time period. Also, any employer who willfully or repeatedly violates the Act may be ass essed penalties of up to $132,598 for each such violation. Criminal penalties are also provided for in the Act. Any willful violation resulting in death of an employee, upon conviction, is punishab le by a fine of not more than $5 0,000 or by imprisonment for not more than six months, or by both. Conviction of any employer after a first conviction doubles these maximum penalties. Penalties may be proposed for public employers. VOLUNTARY ACTIVITY: While providing penalties for violations, the Act also encourages efforts by labor and management, before a Nevada OSHA inspection, to reduce injuries and illnesses arising out of employment. The Nevad a Occupational Safety and Health Administration of the Division of Industrial Relations, Department of Business and Industry, encourages employers and employees to reduce workplace hazards voluntarily and to develop and improve safety and health programs i n all workplaces and industries. Such cooperative action would initially focus on the identification and elimination of hazards that could cause death, injury, or illness to employees and supervisors. Further information and assistance will be provided by Nevada OSHA to employees and employers upon request.
