Workplace Safety Accidents, Part II: A Heat Illness Citation Goes to Trial
In the second episode of our workplace accident case study podcast series, shareholders Kevin Bland and Karen Tynan discuss a Cal/OSHA heat illness citation and the reasons an employer may choose to contest a citation at trial. Our speakers, both of whom are members of Ogletree Deakins’ Workplace Safety and Health Practice Group, also discuss the impact of a citation on prequalification for other work. Karen and Kevin also review trial issues such as witness preparation, securing training and other documentation, and the impact of employee turnover.
