by Brianna Crandall — December 6, 2010—The U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) recently issued a directive updating its Federal Agency Targeting Inspection Program, known as FEDTARG, for fiscal year 2011.
FEDTARG outlines procedures for carrying out programmed inspections at some of the most hazardous federal workplaces, including all those reporting 100 or more lost time cases during fiscal year 2010.
Changes to this directive include updating OSHA’s recordkeeping violation policy and defining a lost time case as an incident in which a worker loses time from work beyond the date of the injury.
FEDTARG is run by OSHA’s Office of Federal Agency Programs, which represents federal worker safety and health issues.
