Recommendation text

To strengthen OSHA’s process for awarding future emergency supplemental funds to State Plans, we recommend the Assistant Secretary for Occupational Safety and Health develop a plan for future crises (e.g., pandemic) to coordinate with the Departmental Budget Center on the time needed to afford State Plans the maximum opportunity to receive the appropriate federal assistance needed to ensure workers’ safety.
