OSHA

One of the main goals of the Brewers Association is to help brewery members develop safety programs and policies that comply with OSHA standards. Employers and employees must work together to assure a safe workplace. Employers need to perform workplace hazard assessments in order to determine necessary protective clothing, adequate engineering controls, and safe work practices as well as provide training and equipment. Employees have the responsibility to conduct themselves in a safe manner according to the equipment and training they have received.
