The National Council for Occupational Safety & Health (COSH) is a leading organization dedicated to advocating for safe and healthy workplaces. With a network of local COSH groups across the country, they work tirelessly to address workplace hazards and promote worker safety. Their efforts include campaigns, policy platforms, and resources to empower workers and ensure their rights are protected.
Recognizing the urgent need to prevent workplace violence, COSH supports petitions for the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) to issue a comprehensive standard in the health care and social assistance sectors. They emphasize the importance of rigorous programs, involving workers and their unions, to effectively address this widespread problem. COSH advocates for a written prevention program, hazard assessment, incident reporting, training, and protections against retaliation, among other measures, to create safe and secure work environments.
