Region 4 - Alliance Renewal Agreement - September 13, 2006


AGREEMENT RENEWING AN ALLIANCE
BETWEEN
THE OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH ADMINISTRATION
U.S. DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
FORT LAUDERDALE AREA OFFICE
AND
THE SAFETY COUNCIL OF PALM BEACH COUNTY, INC.

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and the Safety Council of Palm Beach County (SCPBC) hereby renew the Alliance agreement signed July 28, 2004. OSHA, GCMSA, and the Safety Council of Palm Beach County continue to recognize the value of collaborative efforts to achieve workplace safety. OSHA and the Safety Council of Palm Beach County remain committed to cooperative and proactive efforts to advance workplace safety and health. In renewing this Alliance, OSHA and the Safety Council of Palm Beach County recognize that OSHA’s State Plan and Onsite Consultation Project partners are an integral part of the OSHA national effort.

OSHA’s Alliances provide parties an opportunity to participate in a voluntary cooperative relationship with OSHA for purposes such as training and education, outreach and communication and promoting a national dialogue on workplace safety and health. These Alliances have proved to be valuable tools for both OSHA and its Alliance participants. By entering into an Alliance with a party, OSHA is not endorsing any of that party’s products or services; nor does the Agency enter into an Alliance with the purpose of promoting a particular party’s products or services.

An implementation team made up of representatives of OSHA and the Safety Council of Palm Beach County will meet to develop a plan of action, determine working procedures, and identify the roles and responsibilities of the participants. In addition, they will meet at least three times per year to track and share information on activities and results in achieving the goals of the Alliance.

This agreement will remain in effect for two years from the date of the signing and will automatically be renewed annually thereafter. This agreement may be modified at any time with the concurrence of both signatories and may be terminated for any reason with 30 days written notice from either signatory.
