OSHA invites employers, employees of businesses affecting interstate commerce and all interested parties, including business owners, employees, associations, whistleblower advocacy groups, labor groups and attornies to the meeting.

Participants may speak and hand out written materials, but there will be no opportunity to give an electronic presentation.
