Alliances & Partnerships
The Indiana Department of Labor works with the public to promote safety and health in Hoosier workplaces by offering OSHA compliance assistance services and programs to businesses and organizations through the OSHA Partnership and Alliance Program. These services and programs help organizations and businesses work collaboratively with the Indiana Department of Labor and comply with the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970.
Through the Alliance Program, the Indiana Department of Labor works with groups committed to worker safety and health, including businesses, trade or professional organizations, unions and educational institutions, to leverage resources and expertise to develop compliance assistance tools and resources and share information with employers and employees to help prevent injuries, illnesses and fatalities in the workplace.
The Strategic Partnership Program moves away from traditional enforcement methods to embrace collaborative agreements and work cooperatively to address critical safety and health issues.
