When it comes to reducing injuries, illnesses and fatalities in the workplace, more and more businesses are turning to OSHA for help.Just ask Kelly Olivier, environmental, health and safety coordinator at Anthony Forest Products, an integrated forest products company that has saved more than $1 million in the last 5 years (2001 to 2006) by working with OSHA's On-Site Consultation Program. During the same period, the company spent approximately $50,000 on safety improvements and employee training costs.Founded in 1916, Anthony Forest Products has participated in OSHA's Safety and Health Achievement Recognition Program (SHARP) since 1998 and currently has five SHARP worksites located in three states - Arkansas, Louisiana and Texas - which employ between 10 and 100 employees per worksite. Overall, the company employs approximately 450 people.
