Ales Bartl and Manesh Rath Quoted in an Inside OSHA Article on OSHA HazCom Update

Keller and Heckman Partners Ales Bartl and Manesh Rath were quoted in the Inside OSHA article, “Employer Attorneys Raise Compliance Worries On OSHA ‘HazCom’ Update.” The article discusses the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s (OSHA) upcoming Hazard Communications (HazCom) revisions and the possible implications for the chemical industry, internationally.
