OSHA's Safety and Health Achievement Recognition Program (SHARP) recognizes qualifying small and mid-sized employers that operate exemplary safety and health programs and work with OSHA's On-Site Consultation Program.
This checklist provides a structured self-assessment for organizations considering SHARP and preparing for the consultation and evaluation process.
What's Inside the Checklist
