Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

Answer option C is correct.

A Notice of Contest must be filed within 15 days of the citation. The OSH Act requires employers to allow the CSHO to inspect the workplace (D). Employers may request variances until repairs are made (A) or for processes that provide equal or greater safety for workers. Employers may consult with OSHA to identify possible hazards without fear of a citation or penalty (B); but once a consultant becomes involved, the employer must abate any violations, or the consultant will refer the violation to an OSHA inspector.
