February 18, 2008—The US Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has updated its Small Business Assistance Web page, which provides a wide variety of safety and health tools, products and information for small businesses.
The redesigned Web page now features categorical tabs for easier navigation and access to data, according to OSHA. The new format highlights focal points, new products and links. A new Spanish Language Safety link provides small businesses with Spanish-language safety cards, booklets and posters.
Additionally, the updated “Safety Pays” eTool on the page allows employers to estimate the costs of work-related injuries and illnesses and the estimated impact on a company’s bottom line. It also computes the projected sales growth that would be needed to cover the costs associated with those injuries and illnesses.
