NATE Announces 2022-2023 NATE-OSHA-FCC Strategic Partnership Participants
National Strategic Partnership Program Enters 2nd Year of Site Safety Data Collection and Analysis
(Washington, D.C.) – NATE: The Communications Infrastructure Contractors Association today announced the participating companies that will officially be participants in the NATE-OSHA-FCC Strategic Partnership for 2022-2023.
The NATE-OSHA-FCC Partnership provides participants the opportunity to work cooperatively with OSHA, FCC and other contractors, to identify the most serious workplace hazards, to develop workplace-appropriate safety and health management systems, to share resources, and to find effective ways to reduce work injuries, illness, and deaths. As a participant in the NATE-OSHA-FCC Strategic Partnership, as well as participating in the STAR Initiative program, participants are engaging in building the cooperative relationship with groups that have a vision of providing a safe and healthful work environment for our men and women.
The goals for this partnership are to eliminate fatalities and reduce serious injuries and illnesses; establish root causes of fatalities, injuries, and illness; develop and implement best practices to eliminate the number of fatalities, injuries, and illness; develop and deliver training; communicate safety and health best practices within the industry; and establish an effective evaluation strategy to ensure the goals of the Partnership are met.
The benefits for the participants in the partnership include: enhancing the culture of worker safety and training within their companies, and the opportunity to utilize the NATE STAR Initiative Site Safety Audit Documentation process to proactively identify safety deficiencies prior to work commencing at communication infrastructure sites. OSHA Partnership participant inspections will normally result in compliance officers recommending good faith penalty reductions where the employer has fully implemented a written Safety and Health Management Program. Participants in this partnership will have the opportunity to engage on various task teams needed to focus on relevant safety and health topics, and to be on the front lines to improve safety in our industry.
“Inclusion in the NATE-OSHA-FCC Strategic Partnership demonstrates a commitment to the highest level of tower site and worker safety,” said NATE Director of Safety, Health & Compliance Kathy Stieler. “As the partnership enters its second year of data collection and analysis, we will be able to continue to identify the benchmarks and trends that are impacting site and worker safety and begin to tackle education programs to address those deficiencies,” added Stieler.
