As of April 17, OSHA and state safety agencies have issued 116 violation citations under OSHA's new silica safety rule. The regulation went into effect Sept. 23, but OSHA began full enforcement Oct. 23.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration won't issue citations for tighter silica rules for another 30 days if companies are making a "good faith effort" to comply with them.
USG Corp., is raising awareness around Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s updated standards for silica dust exposure by offering commercial contractors and construction organizations a path to compliance with the aid of USG Sheetrock Brand Dust Control Joint Compound.
