Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission

The Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission (OSHRC) is an independent government agency that reviews and resolves disputes between OSHA (the organization that sets and enforces workplace safety rules) and employers or employees. When OSHA issues citations or fines for unsafe work conditions, affected parties can challenge these decisions before OSHRC. The commission evaluates the evidence, ensures fair procedures, and issues final decisions. Its role is to maintain a balanced process that enforces safety standards while protecting the rights of employers and workers.
