OSHA has also renewed its alliance with The Joint Commission to provide information and training resources that will help protect the safety and health of healthcare workers. Through the Alliance Program, OSHA works with unions, consulates, trade and professional organizations, faith- and community-based organizations, businesses and educational institutions to prevent workplace fatalities, injuries and illnesses.
