OSHA is operational and fully funded through Sept. 30, 2019. In fact, OSHA is doing more enforcement than it did at the end of the Obama administration, according to a Washington, D.C. attorney quoted in a Business Insurance.com report.
OSHA is being affected, however, by the stalled nomination of a new director. The delay has “left a leadership void at OSHA, with the agency unable to embark on or advance major regulatory initiatives,” the publication reported.
