OSHA’s Updated Drone Inspection Program: Know Your Rights & Risks
Summary
The likelihood of OSHA conducting an inspection of your workplace using drones has significantly increased with the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) new rule on the “Operation of Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems Over People.”
Even worse? It may have also paved the way for everyone’s worst nightmare - the potential for unannounced drone inspections.
When can OSHA now use drones to conduct inspections? What are your rights as an employer? Are unannounced drone inspections on the horizon?
What's certain is that employers are now subject to more aggressive inspection tactics and must take action to ensure compliance and avoid penalties.
